timpanometría
Scope note: Pruebas objetivas de la función del oído medio basadas en la dificultad (impedancia) o facilidad (admitancia) del flujo del sonido a través del oído medio. Comprenden la impedancia estática y la dinámica (es decir, pruebas de timpanometría e impedancia junto con la provocación del reflejo acústico). Este término se utiliza también para referirse a varios componentes de la impedancia y admitancia (por ejemplo, observancia, conductancia, reactancia, resistencia, susceptancia).

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000158
Scope note: Objective tests of middle ear function based on the difficulty (impedance) or ease (admittance) of sound flow through the middle ear. These include static impedance and dynamic impedance (i.e., tympanometry and impedance tests in conjunction with intra-aural muscle reflex elicitation). This term is used also for various components of impedance and admittance (e.g., compliance, conductance, reactance, resistance, susceptance).
