MADSEN Capella2 for Otoacoustic Emission Testing Available for Sale in US.
Schaumburg, IL - May 30, 2013 – GN Otometrics, the world leader in hearing and balance diagnostic systems, announced today that the MADSEN Capella2 is now available for sale in the United States. Designed for otoacoustic emission (OAE) testing, the Capella2 is a result of a technology partnership between Intelligent Hearing Systems, a recognized leader in clinical OAE, and Otometrics, the leader in clinical usability. Capella2 allows clinicians to conduct an objective and accurate analysis of cochlear function for all age groups. The user interface of the Capella2 is integrated into the OTOsuite™ software and incorporates a functionality that exceeds other OAE systems available in the market today. As with other clinical tools within OTOsuite™, clinicians can continue to provide their patients with the best possible care without compromising workflow efficiency.
According to Jill Craig, product manager at Otometrics, “We wanted to create a modern, clinical OAE solution boasting accuracy, efficiency and simplicity. By offering new innovative features to improve confidence in results, the new MADSEN Capella2 provides additional assurance in the diagnosis. Our solution supports the needs of novice users of clinical OAE, as well as those clinicians with the most comprehensive demands.”
It offers dynamic new features in a modernized workflow. Simple features, like checking the probe fit at the beginning and end of a measurement, predefined user tests, programmable sequences, as well as the ability to swap ear data and easily compare results with normative values, all mean enhanced ease-of-use and improved confidence in test results. PrecisePoints™ was designed with researchers in mind but is a powerfully simple tool. Optimized In Situ Calibration strikes the balance between accuracy and efficiency. These are just two examples of the more advanced features offered by the new Capella2.
Craig continues, “We are proud to have created a solution that is built on well respected and proven technology. Partnering with Intelligent Hearing Systems, we knew we were working with a leader with an honest reputation, solid ties to the audiology community, and one who keeps the customer in mind.”
MADSEN Capella2 is available for immediate delivery. It will be featured in the Otometrics booth at several upcoming conferences and meetings including: state-wide trade shows, the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) annual meeting in September, and AudiologyNOW!, the American Academy of Audiology (AAA)’s annual meeting in 2014.
