Understanding middle ear mechanics: Why individual data matters 📊

According to Dr. Gabrielle Ryan Merchant, AuD, PhD, when interpreting wideband tympanometry measurements, avoid the temptation to rely solely on group-level norms ❌

Individual data often reveals fine details that averages can hide.

Wideband tympanometry gives us insights across frequencies:

✅ Low frequencies → Stiffness characteristics
✅ High frequencies → Mass characteristics

Combine these findings with other assessments for a clearer picture.

For example:

➡️ Normal hearing + slight wideband tympanometry deviation? Likely just individual variation.

➡️ Conductive hearing loss + reduced low-frequency absorbance? Could indicate increased stiffness – think otosclerosis or similar conditions.

Bottom line: Look beyond templates. Think of mechanics. Integrate results. That’s where the real diagnostic power lies.

P.S. Do you face any challenges in interpreting wideband tympanometry measurements?

Clearer data, more informed decisions 📊

In VisualEyes™ 3.2, we’ve updated the Dynamic Visual Acuity (DVA) graphs to match the look and feel of the Gaze Stabilization Test (GST) graphs, making it easier for you to interpret your patient’s data.

🟢 Green line = Static Visual Acuity
🔴/🔵 Red/blue bars = DVA
🪨 Gray bars = Abnormal DVA (add your own normative data of choice)

Watch the video below by Liz Fuemmeler, Au.D. to see how it works 👇

New in VisualEyes™ 3.2: Visual Processing Time (VPT) testing ⏲️

We’ve added the VPT test as a complementary baseline test to Static Visual Acuity (SVA) for the following functional VOR protocols:

✅ Dynamic Visual Acuity (DVA)
✅ Gaze Stabilization Test (GST)
✅ Functional Vision Head Impulse Test (fvHIT™)

VPT measures the fastest optotype your patient can accurately see, and if you perform two or all three of the above tests, you can copy the results without having to repeat the VPT test 🙌

Today is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities

A day to celebrate the diversity and achievements of people with different abilities and to advocate for their inclusion and equity in all aspects of life.

At Interacoustics A/S, we’re committed to providing innovative and transformative solutions for you and your clients.

This is because we believe that everyone deserves to enjoy the sounds of life.

For some, this is easier said than done.

For instance, a hidden disability – which can be the difference between isolation and connection – is poor hearing-in-noise ability 🔊

Picture your clients struggling to engage in conversations, missing out on life's precious moments due to background noise 😩

It’s frustrating, and it affects their quality of life.

That’s why we’re proud to provide solutions such as the Audible Contrast Threshold (ACT™) test, a game-changing test that measures hearing-in-noise ability and helps you to prescribe the optimal amount of help in noise for your clients.

With the ACT test – and all other innovations from Interacoustics – we hope to make a positive difference in your working life and your clients’ hearing journeys.

Happy International Day of Persons with Disabilities!

The challenges associated with traditional visual reinforcement audiometry (VRA) 🔊

When you're doing audiometry with children, it's a little bit more complicated than when you test an adult who can press a button.

The launch of the new, Equinox Evo clinical audiometer addresses some of the challenges that you may face as a pediatric clinician when working with children and trying to test their hearing, with several solutions to make it easier for you to get reliable results.

In traditional VRA, you may find that:

❌ Reinforcers are basic and non-customizable.
❌ Communication is unreliable and incomplete.
❌ The stimuli are too limited to maintain sufficient attention span.
❌ Multitasking is overwhelming with segregated controls and ticksheets.

Fortunately, the Equinox Evo addresses these challenges, providing you with:

✔️ Integrated and customizable reinforcers.
✔️ A clear, two-way communication system.
✔️ A variety of stimuli to maintain sufficient attention span.
✔️ Reduced multitasking with integrated VRA controls and automatic ticksheets.

P.S. Do you face any other challenges when performing VRA?

Visual reinforcement audiometry (VRA) can be a bit chaotic and a very busy assessment to perform 😅

This can make it difficult to document the test process and how the child responded to each sound.

💡Luckily, a tool exists to do this: The VRA ticksheet.

❌ However, many of the existing manual and electronic VRA ticksheets aren’t sufficient, providing an unclear record of how the VRA test proceeded.

✅ Solution: The Equinox Evo clinical audiometer includes an integrated and automated ticksheet within the pediatric test screen (see the green square in the image 👇).

This ticksheet is populated using crosses and ticks depending on whether you presented the visual reinforcer or not.

A positive head turn response from the child should involve you presenting the visual reinforcer, whereas you shouldn’t reinforce a non-response (no head turn).

The Equinox Evo ticksheet follows this method:

◾ Descending presentations are recorded in the same column.
◾ Ascending presentations are recorded in the adjacent column.
◾ Repeat presentations are recorded in the adjacent column.

As this ticksheet is completed automatically, you do not need to manually enter the responses, allowing you to focus on the patient and the testing process 🙌

P.S. What kind of VRA ticksheet do you use?
