Abstract
Background: The hearing threshold of more than 25 decibels (dB) at the frequencies (500,1000, 2000 and 4000 Hertz) which are important for speech recognition can result in significant auditory deficits. Hearing loss can be slight, moderate, severe or profound hearing loss based on the average threshold.
