GSI Audera’s Standard TIP-50 Insert Transducers
  • Foam tips of various sizes eliminate the problem of collapsing ear canals
  • Soft 2.5 and 3 mm tips included for tiny infant canals
  • Silicone tubes create an acoustic delay, minimizing the click stimulus artifact in ABR recordings
  • Stimuli are calibrated in dB HL for ASSR testing and in dB nHL for AEP — calibration data is provided for each transducer set
It is now recognized that early intervention is critical to speech and language development in hearing impaired infants and children. Available interventions include fitting a hearing aid before six months or performing a cochlear implant as early as one year of age. Selection of the proper plan requires accurate, detailed information about the hearing loss at all frequencies important for speech and language development. This makes it critical that hearing clinicians have an objective, reliable method for measuring frequency specific hearing thresholds in neonates and infants with mild to profound hearing losses. While various technologies including OAE, ABR, and visual reinforcement audiometry have been used, their limitations prevent them from fully meeting the need.


Instrumen OAE, BERA / ABR merek GSI - Grason Stadler Type AUDIOscreener+ Made in USA


Benefits

Three Models

Choose the model to fit the screening needs of your hospital, office, or practice – OAE Only (includes DPOAE and TEOAE), ABR Only, Combination unit.

Requires No Interpretation of Data

  • Only a single button push is necessary to initiate an
  • OAE or ABR screening, producing a quick and clear Pass or Refer result.
  • Objective and Accurate Screening
  • Perform objective and accurate hearing screening that has been clinically proven to be highly specific and sensitive with a minimal refer rate.

Time Savings

OAE screening only takes 20 seconds per ear – saving valuable testing time while producing an additional cost saving benefit.

Portability And Versatility

The GSI AUDIOscreener+ is a handheld, battery-operated hearing screening device designed to test newborns, children, adults and all difficult-to-test patients.

High-Volume Screening

The GSI AUDIOscreener+ is designed for use by minimally trained staff (i.e. technician or volunteer), allowing for rapid and easy high-volume screening across multiple locations.

Probes Or Comfort Cups™

The GSI AUDIOscreener+ can be used to perform an ABR test with probes inserted into the patient's ear canal or with the GSI COMFORT CUPS secured over the patient's ear.

Wireless Data Transmittal

Up to 300 patient records can be wirelessly transmitted to and from a desktop computer via an infrared port. This results in clear, concise, easy-to-read, full page reports.

Total Screening Accuracy

Real ear calibration for OAE and ABR promotes total screening accuracy, unlike competitor systems whose stimuli can vary by many dB.

Reduce The Incidence Of False Positives

Limited OAE and ABR diagnostic data is gathered to help ensure that no child with a hearing impairment goes undetected and to reduce the incidence of false positives (children with normal hearing who receive Refer results). Data can be read by a staff audiologist or be emailed to a consulting audiologist.

Unparalleled Customer Service

The GSI AUDIOscreener+ is supported by more than 60 years of customer service as well as technical support.

Instrument ABR/BERA/ASSR merek OTOMETRICS Type ICS Chartr EP 200 Made in Denmark


Auditory Evoked Potential - At its best!

The ICS Chartr EP 200 builds on the expertise of our ICS Chartr line. Creating smaller, portable systems while maintaining the easy-to-use software interface valued by our customers. New features maintain the user friendliness and assist you in performing any AEP test with ease.
Comprehensive test battery
ICS Chartr EP 200 provides a comprehensive test battery for diagnosing a wide range of auditory and vestibular disorders. Users can create their own protocols or get an immediate start with the pre-loaded ones.
Easy navigation
The software interface ensures a smooth work process. Three easy access tabs make acquiring and reviewing data quick and intuitive. The New Test tab gives direct access to test protocols, the Quick Settings tab gives easy access to protocol parameters and the Review tab gives instant access to all saved data.
ICS Chartr EP 200 at a glance:
• Click Evoked ABR
• Toneburst ABR
• Electrocochleography
• Auditory Middle Latency Response (AMLR)
• Auditory Late Response (ALR)
• P300 - optional
• Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potential (VEMP) - optional
• Auditory Steady State Response (ASSR) - optional

Improve patient care with VEMP

The ICS Chartr EP 200 comes with an optional VEMP module for a more comprehensive vestibular assessment. The VEMP module utilizes EMG monitoring with a unique device that eases the testing procedure and allows users to test with confidence.
Readily accessible VEMP protocols
A list of VEMP protocols are added under the New Test tab already known from the EP interface. Available protocols include: toneburst and click air conduction VEMP protocols, bone conduction VEMP protocol and OVEMP protocol. Users can also create their own.
Instant EMG monitoring
“The tonic state of the SCM muscle is a critical parameter in the recording method of the VEMP. Thus, controlling the level of tonic EMG would appear to be a prerequisite for the accurate interpretation of the VEMP”(1).
The ICS Chartr 200 VEMP monitor records the EMG level and thus makes VEMP testing a lot easier. The monitor assists in controlling the amount of tonic level EMG by making the patient and tester aware of the level through a series of lights. The monitor can be easily mounted or held by the patient during data collection.

Efficient Multi-frequency ASSR

The optional Auditory Steady State Response (ASSR) module is a great addition to the ICS Chartr EP 200, which allows you to obtain frequency specific, auditory data, quickly and efficiently.
RapidASSR™ algorithm
The RapidASSR™ response detection algorithm makes it possible to collect up 12 frequencies simultaneously (6 frequencies per ear). The proven algorithm uses a Fourier Linear Combiner with an adaptive filter and circular T2 statistical analysis*.
Instant monitoring of EEG and impedance values
The EEG is always viewable during data collection, making it easy to check the patient’s state. Impedance can be checked at any time during testing without interfering with data collection. Both timesaving features, ensuring that accurate data are collected.
