Is it possible to measure ABRs via a bone anchored hearing aid? The answer is yes. Bone-anchored hearing system (BAHS) patients are typically those with a conductive (or mixed) or single-sided sensor…

The Interacoustics Academy welcomed Fiona Duncan, Audiologist and Head of Department at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead, to present a pediatric auditory brainstem response (ABR) case study. In th…
Jack Bennett, International Clinical Trainer at the Interacoustics Academy, describes how to perform Unaided Real Ear Measurements. This includes how to check for contra indications during otoscopy…
Air-bone gaps are the difference in sensitivity threshold between air and bone conduction transducers. This measurement helps distinguish between conductive and sensorineural hearing losses, as well…
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…

Transcript This quick guide video will discuss using otoacoustic emissions as a diagnostic tool and introduce some applications for OAE testing outside of newborn hearing screening. Over recent years…
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…
