For flat or gently-sloping shaped hearing losses the Pure Tone Average often correlates with the Speech Reception Threshold. Sometimes the average includes other combinations of frequencies (i.e., a high frequency average may include 3000 Hz or 4000 Hz).  1, fiche 1, Anglais, - pure%20tone%20coverage

Such categories might include mild, moderate, severe, and profound hearing loss, as determined by combinations of pure tone averages and speech recognition scores.  2, fiche 2, Anglais, - pure%20tone%20average
