Medical - Medical (general) / Traducción de una audiometría
Spanish term or phrase: VA y VO S/E
Esas abreviaciones están en la parte de Observaciones, debajo del gráfico de la audiometría.
Creo que significa: vía aérea y vía ósea sin enmascaramiento, pero no estoy segura.
Se trata de varios exámenes médicos que debe presentar mi cliente en una empresa de Estados Unidos.

Explanation:
Air conduction and bone conduction without masking

Obviamente se está hablando del enmascaramiento para vía ósea VO, por tanto es ipsilateral. Sintetiza los pasos del procedimiento del enmascaramiento según Método de Meseta
1. Medir umbrales por vía aérea y vía ósea sin enmascaramiento.

Bone-conduction audiometry without masking
Without masking, it is not possible to determine which ear is responding to boneconduction testing. Calibration standards for bone conduction apply only to
monaural hearing and were derived using approximately 35 dB sensation level of
masking noise in the non-test ear. When testing without masking, thresholds may
appear more acute by about 5 dB due to binaural stimulation.

Air Conduction (AC) and Bone Conduction (BC)
 Air conduction: Transmission of sound via an earphone or speaker through the outer and middle ear to the cochlea
 Bone conduction: the transmission of sounds to the cochlea by vibration of the skull

Explanation:
En ninguna de las referencias aparece con abreviaturas.

La vía ósea (VO) es representada por el "camino" que recorre los estímulos desde cualquier parte del cráneo (en este examen, en la Apófisis Mastoides del Hueso Temporal) hasta llegar directamente hasta la cóclea (como en el Test de Rinne por vía ósea (VO)) Es decir, que no se evalúa el paso de estas frecuencias por el OE, ni por el OM (Vía aérea (VA) y normal del paso del sonido del medio exterior).

Left ear sensorineural hearing loss due to vestibular schwannoma. With sensorineural hearing loss, there is no significant difference in threshold between*** air and bone conduction** (see charts masked/unmasked)

Repeatability of **unmasked** high-frequency¨*** bone-conduction*** measurements made within a test session and among five test sessions was examined for 1.0 through 16 kHz (Frank and Ragland, 1987).
The means of the absolute-value-of-differences ranged between 3.1 and 5.9 dB for*** air conduction***.
