SISI (Short Increment Sensitivity Index)

SISI (Short Increment Sensitivity Index)

That is a test. It tests the ability of the individual to sense very minute changes in the intensity of sound. It enables the audiologists to differentiate between the sensory (related to inner ear) and neural (nerve-related) types of hearing loss, and this makes it a good diagnostic tool in cochlear disorders. Regular counseling should ensure that patients will know the meaning of the test results and the next steps of treatment or hearing rehabilitation.
