diagnosisSummaryContains a narrative summary of any diagnoses attributed to the patient. Well formed narratives should: 1. Indicate type and degree of hearing loss for the frequency range from 500 to 4000 Hz. For type of loss, indicate whether it is normal, conductive, sensorineural, central, or mixed. For degree, indicate whether it is mild (26-40 dB HL), moderate (41-54 dB HL), moderately-severe (55-69 dB HL), severe (70-89 dB HL), or profound (90+ dB HL). For VA purposes, impaired hearing is considered to be a disability when the auditory threshold in any of the frequencies 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 Hz is 40 dB HL or greater; or when the auditory thresholds for at least three of these frequencies are 26 dB HL or greater; or when speech recognition scores are less than 94%. 2. Note whether, based on audiologic results, medical follow-up is needed for an ear or hearing problem, and whether there is a problem that, if treated, might cause a change in hearing threshold levels. [FileMan 509850.6,104]
diagnosticsSummaryContains a narrative summary of any diagnostic and/or clinical test results. Well formed narratives should: Report middle-ear status, confirm type of loss, and indicate need for medical follow-up. In cases where there is poor inter-test reliability and/or positive Stenger test results, obtain and report estimates of hearing thresholds using a combination of behavioral testing, Stenger interference levels, and electrophysiological tests; and Include results of all diagnostic and clinical tests conducted in the examination report.

[FileMan 509850.6,4.07]
leftThresholdAverageThe average pure tone threshold for this patient's left ear. This indicates the average of the 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000Hz scores for the right ear, expressed as an integer between -10 and 105. [FileMan 509850.6,4.12]
medicalHistorySummaryContains a narrative summary of the medical history and/or subjective complaints of the patient. Well formed narratives should include: Chief Complaint; Situation of greatest difficulty; Pertinent service history;History of military, occupational, and recreational noise exposure; and If Tinnitus is present: -date and circumstances of onset, -whether it is unilateral or bilateral, -whether it is recurrent, and -the most likely etiology of the tinnitus, and if hearing loss is present, whether the tinnitus is due to the same etiology (or causative factor) as the hearing loss.
