TEN stands for Threshold Equalising Noise. This is a type of masking noise that is presented to the ear being tested (as opposed to the non-test ear during masking in conventional pure tone audiometr…
Transcript This is how you set up and use the Assistant Monitor in the Equinox Suite. When opening the suite, on the start page, you'll see the Talk and Monitor section. Expanding this section allows…
The “calibrate for open fit” is used when fitting an open fit hearing aid. It prevents sound leaking from the ear and picked up by the reference microphone during aided measurements. It is performed…
Hearing aid fitting can be a difficult area to navigate; should you focus solely on the client’s feedback? Should you focus on making a good target match? Or should you just rely on the hearing aid m…
Jack Bennett, BSc (Hons), International Clinical Trainer from the Interacoustics Academy discusses the physical and environmental factors that effect the quality of measurements achieved when perform…
The regular ABR stimulus is in dB nHL and the masking in dB SPL. How do we know if the levels are comparative? In other words, if the AC toneburst is 40 dB nHL and the masking intensity is 45 dB SPL…
Interacoustics is excited to launch the Aided Cortical module for their Eclipse evoked potential system. The Eclipse Aided Cortical module offers an objective method to validate the benefit of hearin…
Introduction It can sometimes be difficult to understand feedback from your patient regarding how their hearing aid sounds. The Affinity Compact has a handy feature which allows you to listen directl…
What is the masking level difference (MLD)? The masking level difference (MLD) is the improvement in detecting a tone or speech in noise when the phase of the tone or the noise is reversed by 180 deg…
What is the Masking Level Difference (MLD)? The Masking Level Difference (MLD) is the improvement in detecting a tone or speech in noise when the phase of the tone or the noise is reversed by 180 deg…
This video shows you how to perform the test while keeping the patient occupied and engaged throughout the test. Note that the electrode montage of Aided Cortical testing is the same as that used for…
What is pediatric noise? Pediatric noise is a special noise stimuli that can be used as an alternative for pure tones, warble tones and narrow band noise. The use of pediatric noise is useful during…
