New AURICAL features help audiologists and hearing care professionals streamline their workflow and carry out even more advanced measurements. Hands-on training available (0.7 CEUs).
Schaumburg, IL | May 2015 – Audiology Systems, a full-service, U.S. distributor of GN Otometrics products such as AURICAL®, MADSEN® and ICS®, as well as other leading audiology and vestibular equipment, announced today the availability of new and improved AURICAL to hearing care professionals in the United States.
AURICAL is a complete, modular fitting solution by Otometrics that is powered by OTOsuite® software. The fitting module in OTOsuite integrates AURICAL into the entire patient journey – from diagnostics and counseling to fitting and verification from one application. The latest release demonstrates how AURICAL continues to help audiologists and hearing care professionals realize greater efficiency gains while boosting the quality of counseling and care.
“We are committed to helping hearing care professionals achieve the best fit in the most efficient and flexible way possible,” says Mona Dworsack-Dodge, director of market management and audiology at Audiology Systems. “This release includes simple improvements and advanced features to benefit both new and existing AURICAL customers and makes AURICAL the most efficient fitting system to date.”
New features such as RoomTune™, QuickView™ and enhancements to probe microphone measurements (PMM) FreeStyle™ are designed to help hearing care professionals streamline their fitting processes and achieve a smoother workflow. RoomTune™ measures the acoustics of the room and speakers and adjusts the sound during playback for reliable hearing instrument demonstration in the fitting software. A new FitAssist™ tool, QuickView gives instant access to the video otoscope during PMM. And, 2-channel PMM FreeStyle makes it possible to work with a second sound source in PMM, chosen independently, for a more realistic stimulus presentation.
Otometrics and Audiology Systems have planned new Hands-on AURICAL Training – next available in October 2015. Building on the concepts introduced in the FittingNOW! Series launched in 2012, the seven-hour fitting course is designed to help professionals stay up-to-date with the latest fitting and verification techniques so they can spend more time caring for their patients. Key training areas include practical application of the instruction and demonstrations that incorporate the latest technologies in hearing instruments.
