Tympanogram Peak Compliance Classification

Classify tympanogram type (A, As, Ad, B, C) from peak compliance and pressure measurements to diagnose middle ear pathology including otitis media with effusion, ossicular discontinuity, and Eustachian tube dysfunction.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Classify tympanogram type (A, As, Ad, B, C) from peak compliance and pressure measurements to diagnose middle ear pathology including otitis media with effusion, ossicular discontinuity, and Eustachian tube dysfunction

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Peak compliance — The peak compliance recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Pressure measurements — The pressure measurements recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the tympanogram type result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the peak compliance, pressure measurements for the scenario you are assessing. Classify tympanogram type (A, As, Ad, B, C) from peak compliance and pressure measurements to diagnose middle ear pathology including otitis media with effusion, ossicular discontinuity, and Eustachian tube dysfunction. Use the tympanogram type result to inform your calculation.
