Difference between Hearing Loss and being partially deaf?
I know this may seem completely obvious, but I want to know:) What distinguishes these two terms apart, I do not think they are synonymous. I have a mild hearing loss at two frequency points specific. A loss does not mean a complete absence of these points, I think there must be a complete absence of sounds to be classified as one … but how much and how many frequency points? Hi, Thanks for your reply. But I would not necessarily agree with this comment, but you must have exceptional hearing to establish or sing music professionally "Brian Wilson is deaf in one ear, and numerous other musicians who work now obviously have hearing loss and tinnitus. In fact, it is probably more common than you think. I'm still not clear on this point well. Some hearing loss is different from being partially deaf right?
"Partially Deaf" is not really a term that is used in ENT clinics or diagnostic parameters. The phrase most often used is "hearing impairment". Hearing Disorders are divided into four categories – mild (20-40 dB), moderate (41-60 dB), severe (61-80 dB) and profound (over 81 db). Some people use slightly different numbers, but I think the ones I mentioned are the most commonly accepted. Only in deep people are generally considered "deaf" while the term "profound hearing loss" is sometimes used interchangeably with deaf people. The most important frequencies of speech are 500-2000 Hz Therefore, to have a PTA (pure tone average) or a TRS (Speech reception threshold) over 80 dB bilaterally at these frequencies is usually the clinical definition used to classify a person as "Profoundly deaf".
