1 Average threshold from unaided PTA was calculated from audiometric measures conducted with unaided hearing across 500, 1000, and 2000 Hz. 2 Normal, −10 to 15 dB; Slight, 16 to 25 dB; Mild, 26 to 40 dB; Moderate, 41 to 55 dB; Moderately severe, 56 to 70 dB; Severe, 71 to 90 dB; Profound, 91+ dB [30]. Abbreviations: Fhx, family history of early-onset hearing loss; PTA, pure tone average; HI, hearing intervention; CI, cochlear implantation; HA, hearing aid.
