Aim - definition of perceived timbre of sounds (tones) as hearing quality; determining the criterion of hearing quality and assessment of effectiveness of the prevention and treatment of hearing disorders and concomitant pathologies. Materials. Audiometric indicators obtained with the use of all-frequency sound generator in patients with hearing disorders. Methods. Audiometric method with the use of allfrequency sound generator; methods of mathematical calculation and analysis. Results. The performed experiments and computer simulation showed that the timbre of perceived sound represents the hearing quality. Hearing quality criterion can be used to assess the effectiveness of treatment of hearing disorders and concomitant pathologies, medical manipulations and physical therapy for rapid control and monitoring of the hearing state. Conclusions. Assessment of the hearing quality and the effectiveness of preventive and therapeutic measures. Results of the study are safe and reproducible; monitoring is fast, visualized and reliable.
