This quick guide describes the procedure when wishing to perform an OAE test on a patient with PE-tubes. When performing an OAE test the in-ear detection ensures that that the probe is properly inser…
The Tone in Noise test is a method to identify the comparison of recruitment in the inner ear. When measuring a masked threshold, the sensitivity for level differences increases, making it easier to…
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 supplies calibration equipment from both Brüel & Kjær and G.R.A.S. Both manufacturers produce complete calibration sets with the exception that only Brüel & Kjær offers an artificial m…
This video tutorial provides an overview of the steps required to perform a real ear measurement probe tube calibration on the Interacoustics Affinity Compact.
This video provides a discussion of the importance of the role of the second tester for visual reinforcement audiometry (VRA) testing, and explores how and why the second tester should interact with…
This paper discusses the mechanism of weighted averaging and in what circumstances it improves otoacoustic emission (OAE) measurements. It details investigations of OAE measurements on a wide range o…
