New OAE screener by Otometrics available through Audiology Systems.
Schaumburg, IL - May 2014 – Audiology Systems recently announced that the MADSEN Alpha® OAE+ – the new otoacoustic emissions (OAE) hearing screener by Otometrics - has received FDA 510(k) clearance and is now available for sale in the United States. MADSEN Alpha OAE+ is designed for both pediatric and adult patient populations.
According to David Adlin, screening products manager with Otometrics, “The MADSEN Alpha OAE+ provides physicians with objective data to help detect hearing loss early. This is especially important because recent studies show those with hearing loss suffer a dramatic impact on quality of life.”
The handheld MADSEN Alpha OAE+ hearing screener offers several innovations, including intuitive touch screen navigation, built-in probe test cavity and an on-board cartoon that engages children during the brief test. The result is short test times and accurate hearing screen results with virtually no user learning curve. The MADSEN Alpha OAE+ hearing screener meets the new billing requirements for CPT code 92587.
