Abstract Objectives Acoustic immittancemetry measurement is made using a probe tone or click stimulus at a frequency of 226 Hz, which is included in the audiological test battery. This study aims to compare tympanometric peak pressure (TPP), static acoustic admittance (Y tm ), equivalent external ear canal volume (V ea ) and tympanometric width (TW) values measured with probe tone and click stimulus at 226 Hz frequency. Design Measurements were made with a probe tone and click stimulus at frequency of 226 Hz in 60 ears of 30 adult individuals with normal hearing between the ages of 18–26. In the measurements TPP, Y tm , V ea and TW values were determined for both ears. Results In two different tympanogram measurement results using 226 Hz click stimulus and 226 Hz probe tone were a statistically significant difference was found between Y tm , V ea and TW values in the left ear ( p 0.05). Conclusıon The current findings show that the comment of right and left ear tympanogram results should be evaluated according to two different measurement results using 226 Hz click stimulus and 226 Hz probe tone.
