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?

Diving into acute, episodic, and chronic vestibular syndromes 😵‍💫

During November 11-13, 35 clinicians from across the globe were gathered at our HQ for three days of advanced vestibular diagnostics.

With the learning evenly split between lectures and practical, hands-on sessions, each of the three days focused on the clinical tools available for different types of vestibular syndromes, such as:

✅ Functional VOR testing
✅ Objective posturography
✅ Advanced vHIT and VEMP testing

And much more 🙌

All under the expert guidance of Michelle Petrak, Ph.D., Director of Clinical Research, Michael East and Darren Whelan, Audiologists and International Clinical Trainers at the Interacoustics Academy, and Leigh Martin, Audiologist and Director of the Interacoustics Academy 🧑‍🏫

Thank you for three wonderful days!

Do you perform vestibular research? 🔬

Then here are 7 VisualEyes™ 3.2 features you could benefit from 👇

1️⃣ Blinking fixation light

You can cue your patient’s eyes with a blinking fixation light to bring their eyes to primary gaze during testing. For this purpose, you will see an additional button in VisualEyes 3.2 (lightbulb) on the toolbar above the cameras.

2️⃣ Adjust the duration of caloric irrigations for each temperature

In VisualEyes 3.2, you can now adjust the duration of each temperature. So, if you've ever wondered whether duration makes a difference, now you've got the ability to test it on your research subjects so that you can better serve your patients in the clinic.

3️⃣ Optokinetic test adjustments

During optokinetic testing, you can change the speed and direction of the test in real-time. These adjustments only impact the stimulus, with no additional measurement or analysis completed.

4️⃣ Keyboard marker

Some clinicians prefer the ability to mark an external stimulus (such as an auditory masker or goggle cover taken off) on their oculomotor tests to signal why a change in eye movements or pupil diameter may have occurred.

You can use the keyboard letter “m” to place a marker on the eye tracing graph. To add a marker to the tracing, press the “m” key on the keyboard. This will add a black vertical line to the eye tracing graph. You can add as many markers as you want during a recording.

You can also export keyboard marker data. A keyboard marker file will be present in every test file and if you have used this function, the time points will be displayed in the Excel document.

5️⃣ Pupillometry

We’ve switched the measurement parameter in the Pupil Diameter function from pixels to millimeters, offering more clinically useful information for Pupillometry.

You can also click Edit Tools > ‘+’ sign to add points to the Pupil Diameter graph to get exact measurements of the pupil size at any point during the recording.

6️⃣ Exact degree of head position

Our 3D head model (used in Advanced Dix-Hallpike and Lateral Head Roll testing) now includes exact degree of head position for accurate testing.

7️⃣ Measure rebound nystagmus

You can turn on an ‘Extend End of Recording” feature in gaze testing, which will allow the stimulus to return to center for measuring any rebound nystagmus.

Predicting the severity of conductive hearing loss and middle ear effusion volume using wideband tympanometry 🔬

In this Interacoustics Academy eWorkshop, we are delighted to invite Dr. Gabrielle Ryan Merchant, AuD, PhD, CCC-A from Boys Town National Research Hospital to present her latest research on the topic of how wideband tympanometry can be used to predict the volume of middle ear effusion and severity of conductive hearing loss.

The assessment of middle ear function is critical in the diagnosis of middle ear effusion, and understanding the extent of conductive hearing losses is essential for effective management plans of these patients.

Dr. Merchant's exciting research has explored the link between the volume of middle ear effusion and the severity of hearing loss, creating a new clinical application for wideband tympanometry.

This allows for cross-checking against audiometric information, as well as offering a predictive tool when limited behavioral information can be obtained.

Learning objectives:

✅ Describe the limitations of single frequency probe tone tympanometry.
✅ Explain the benefits and advantages of performing wideband tympanometry.
✅ Describe how wideband tympanometry can be used to predict middle ear effusion volume and severity of hearing loss.
