This session will explore how the role of vestibular assessments can be used to inform the management of infants and children with hearing impairment . Whilst traditionally hearing intervention has b…
An important consideration when it comes to performing aided cortical testing is around the stimuli used for the test. Limitations of previous aided cortical stimuli There were concerns regarding som…
What is speech audiometry? Speech audiometry, also known as speech testing, employs speech signals to assess if the patient has problems hearing speech or speech in noise. Speech audiometry can be us…
In cases where you detect a symmetrical hearing loss, traditional audiometry without masking is usually sufficient. However, be aware that in cases of asymmetrical hearing loss, one cannot be certain…

Jack Bennett, International Clinical Trainer at the Interacoustics Academy, describes all the steps you need to take in order to prepare for Real Ear Measurements. This includes how to prepare your e…
What is the Delta Values feature? When fitting hearing aids to independent target curves it can sometimes be difficult to assess how far your measurement curve is away from the target curve. Therefor…
What is the auditory steady-state response (ASSR)? The auditory steady-state response (ASSR) is an electrophysiological response that is evoked by a periodically repeated (rapid) auditory stimulus. A…
What is threshold testing? The Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) is an evoked potential that originates at the auditory nerve (Cranial Nerve VIII) and the response is picked up by surface electrodes…
I want to ask a question about the article from Ferm et al., 2013 titled: “Comparison of ABR response amplitude, test time, and estimation of hearing threshold using frequency specific chirp and tone…
This document serves as a quick run through on how to perform an aided cortical measurement. We refer to the Eclipse support page that contains the Additional Information and Instructions For Use doc…
Purpose: To evaluate the performance of the Titan Probe Unit. Solution: How to test the Pump Wheel for air leak: Switch Titan on by pressing either L or R on the handheld unit. Select Protocol “01 No…
