How do bone anchored systems work? Bone anchored hearing systems transfer sound to the cochlea via direct bone conduction, bypassing the outer and middle ear. This is similar to the way that sound is…
Research made into hearing care For more than 100 years, we have been fitting hearing aids based on the pure tone audiogram. But there is more to hearing than just being able to hear soft sounds. Wit…

If you find an asymmetry between the ears in ASSR, can you apply masking? It is absolutely key that any masking needs are met for accurate diagnosis and management. The principles of masking ASSR are…
Screening protocols It is possible to create a screening protocol in the DPOAE module that provides a test outcome labelled as PASS, REFER or INCOMPLETE. The application of DPOAEs in screening is ver…
Odense University Hospital (OUH) in Denmark is one of many hospitals that use otoacoustic emission (OAE) measurements to supplement other hearing tests. This is because OAEs can provide exclusive inf…
