What is the VDB-Express test? Difficulty with hearing in background noise is a common complaint among hearing aid users. Therefore, the measurement of SNR loss (signal-to-noise ratio loss) is importa…
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…
The Ambient Noise feature allows you to monitor the test environment for noise during audiometric testing. It is ideal when testing in non-optimal conditions or when testing via tele-audiometry. Know…
Over the last few years there have been studies and publications identifying a clear need for balance testing to be integrated into care plans for children with sensorineural hearing loss. But with m…
What are auditory late responses (ALRs)? Auditory Late Responses (ALRs) are longer latency components that for most part are generated in higher regions of the auditory CNS, including the auditory co…
What are middle-latency responses (MLRs)? Middle-latency responses (MLRs) are related to auditory generators of the subcortical regions Na and Pa components at cortical levels. Na is considered the o…

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…
This course provides discussion of the implementation and processes of the Audible Contrast Threshold test, explore how the assessment might fit into a hearing professional’s clinical flow and discus…
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…
