TinniTest : Audiologic Tinnitus Evaluation System

TinniTest is an all-in-one digital instrument for hearing and tinnitus diagnosis and management. In addition to recording all patient information from case history to evaluation questionnaires, it has incorporated specific psychoacoustic measures of tinnitus as validation tools for sound therapies, counseling and other management strategies. TinniTest, already registered with FDA of USA, meets all requirements for intended clinical applications. As a comprehensive audiometer and an innovative tinnitus diagnostic instrument, TinniTest performs all behavioral tests of hearing and tinnitus assessment at greater precision and flexibility. Built on a sophisticated digital platform, TinniTest boasts a powerful, versatile and accurate processing capability of delivering all testing stimuli at various levels. The proprietary algorithms power all functions to help clinical assessment and management of tinnitus and hearing disorders. The evaluation findings, including patient data and examination outcomes, can be saved and processed by either pre set criteria or user defined guidelines. Testing results are innovatively expressed as Tinniograms, allowing visual comparisons of all data on screen to assist the clinician in making accurate diagnosis for effective management.
