What is it about?
We have characterized the hearing of adolescents from four schools of Cordoba, Argentina, through the analysis of conventional and extended high frequency audiometric thresholds and otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) and the association between the mentioned hearing tests with the exposure to music.

Why is it important?
The findings highlight the value of implementing hearing conservation programs in Argentina, analyzing hearing tests correlated with questionnaires about recreational noise exposure in order to detect vulnerable ears early.
Perspectives
I hope that this research makes the hearing situation of adolescents in our country visible at an international level.
