Term
What did Bartolomeo Eustachius do?
Definition
His greatest work was anatomical engravings. He discovered the stapes and describes the tensor tympani. Established chorda tympani as branch of facial nerve. Also discribed the Eustachian tube
Term
What did Valsalva do?
Definition
Described aortic sinuses. Coined the term eustachian tube. Associated with valsalva maneuver which tests eustachian tube function and circulatory function
Term
What did Metz invent?
Definition
the first immittance equipment
Term
-1940s: ___ Invented the First Immittance Equipment
-Published landmark study in ___; first to test immittance in normal & pathologic ears
-Saw that pressure changes affected ___ ___ measures
-Studied ___ ___
-Saw need for desktop equipment with a ___ ___
Definition
Metz; 1946; ME; acoustic reflexes; pressure pump
Term
1950s & 60s: Early Instrumentation:
-___ , Terkildsen & Nielson developed prototype
-___, Terkildsen & Thomsen used 1st commercially available equipment
-1963, Madsen ZO70 had arbitrary “____ ___”
-Implication: Could not determine norms since arbitrary units could not be ___ or ___
Definition
1957; 1959; compliance units; averaged; compared
Term
GSI 1720:
-Used ___ Hz, ___ Hz, & 1000 Hz probe tones
-Measured ___, rather than impedance
-Instead of calibration in arbitrary “compliance units”; could be calibrated in ___
-Implication: Allowed response of the ear canal alone to be subtracted from total ___
Definition
220; 678; admittance; millimhos; immittance
Term
Tympanogram Shapes:
-Liden, ___, published tympanogram typing system
based on shape
-Jerger, ___, built on Liden’s work & classified tymps
based on shape
Definition
1969; 1970
Term

Acoustic Reflexes – Evolution of Animal & Human Research:

-___s: Henson saw ASR (dogs)

-___: Kato saw stapedius muscle contract to sound (monkeys)

-___: Luscher first to see ASR in humans

-___: Hallpike reviewed animal studies (cats and rabbits); cont. debate TT or stapedius?

-___: Metz measured ASR in humans

Definition
1870; 1913; 1929; 1935; 1946
Term
test of middle ear function; measures sound energy absorbed by the middle ear relative to pressure varied in the ear canal
Definition
tympanometry
Term
contraction of the stapedial muscle, evoked by sounds, & measured as changes in admittance in the ear canal
Definition
acoustic reflexes
Term
Tympanometry:
-Amount of ___ admitted into middle ear, as air ___ is changed
-When air pressure is applied, the TM & ossicles become ___ - which ___ absorption of sound energy
-Peak shows ___ flow of energy
Definition
energy; pressure; stiffened; decreases; maximum
