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…
What is speech audiometry? Most people acquiring hearing aids report trouble hearing speech, or more often trouble hearing speech in noise. Here speech testing becomes a strong test tool in the asses…

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…
In this video, you will learn why it is important to perform bone conduction auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing, and how best to set up for bone conduction testing, with some tips and suggesti…
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…
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…
What is a cochlear microphonic? The cochlear microphonic is a response from the cochlea that mimics the input stimulus and is believed to be a response primarily from the outer hair cells (Dallos, 19…
Advances in technology have greatly improved the neural responses generated by the Eclipse ASSR through the use of the CE-Chirp® family of stimuli, as well as the response detector which uses both ph…
Peter Bray, Ph.D., Interacoustics’ OAE specialist, has more than 35 years' experience when it comes to otoacoustic emissions (OAEs). A good proportion of his career, he has focused on capitalizing on…
