In May 2021, Interacoustics could reveal its second visual reinforcement audiometry (VRA) solution: VRA Screen. This is a digital complement to the analog VRA201. What is VRA? VRA is a fun and intera…
It’s difficult to answer the question about how close you can get to threshold using eABR. eABR testing allows us to record a threshold on the equipment, and this is then used to set the T level on t…

This tip discusses why you need to be careful when analyzing otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) using the traditional signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio method and which criterion to use instead to improve confid…
When it comes to performing audiometry, having the right equipment can make all the difference. The traditional standalone audiometer and its PC-based counterpart are both good options, but both stil…
What is pure tone audiometry? Pure tone audiometry is a hearing test that establishes hearing sensitivity at various frequencies for air conduction and bone conduction. The test can specify the air c…

In evoked potential testing, there are various ways to measure residual noise. But which one should you use? The fully objective and perhaps easiest method is to use the automated residual noise calc…
This video describes the process of how to perform a good ASSR and discusses several factors which you should consider whilst undertaking this type of evoked potential testing. We discuss how ASSR ca…
