DPOAE-TEOAE-TYMP, Screening and Diagnostic. OAE and Tympanometry are completed In Sequence in as little as 20 Seconds.
Features:
The EroScan Pro is a device that can fit any practice whether you perform hearing screening (protocol of 4 frequencies) or diagnostic testing (protocol up to 10 frequencies) using DPOAE, TEOAE, Tympanometry or all three. Results are displayed as PASS or REFER No need for interpretation. The equipment is automated and will provide easy-to-read and easy-to-interpret results. Trained staff can perform the test. No need for interpretation. The equipment is automated and will provide easy-to-read and easy-to-interpret results. Trained staff can perform the Test is completely objective No response from the patient is necessary. Easily test uncooperative or non-English-speaking patients. Accurate results The patented EroScan Pro noise algorithm allows for reliable testing in up to 70 dB SPL of background noise – fewer false REFER results. Reimbursement Otoacoustic emissions are reimbursable using the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes. To date, health care reimbursement has varied in terms of cost per test but no problems have arisen if the appropriate codes are utilized. The most typical CPT code for OAE screening is: 92587: Evoked otoacoustic emissions; limited (single stimulus level, either transient or distorted products). This is the most typical code and would be considered a “screening” code. 92588: Comprehensive or diagnostic evaluation (comparison of transient and/or distortion product otoacoustic emissions at multiple levels and frequencies). This is for diagnostic OAE testing. 92567: Tympanometry Portability The EroScan Pro hand-held unit runs on batteries and allows you to move from room to room. The probe also makes it easy to maneuver around the head of your patient to attain a tight ear seal. Managing Data and Print Results The EroScan Pro is available with an optional database management package that facilitates patient management and printing. Managing patient reports and tracking data is easy with the optional database. Selectable print options, are easily commanded by the push of one button located on the cradle;
