All sessions relating to the selected client, and containing audiometry data are automatically loaded into the
Compare
Audiograms
feature box.
Compare current and historical audiograms
1. In the
Compare Audiograms
feature box, single-click to select
the audiograms you wish to view from the list of historical audi-
ograms. Any selected historical audiogram will appear with grey
curves in the audiogram graph.
2. All curves of the selected audiograms are viewed and compared
simultaneously unless you explicitly select a curve type from
the feature box drop-down lists. The lists let you define the test
type and aided condition that you wish to view and compare.
3. You can enhance the compare view by enabling the
Difference
view. This is done by checking the
Difference
option in the fea-
ture box. The
Difference
view highlights any difference
between the most recent and any older audiogram curves selec-
ted in the list.
4. If you decide to make a new audiogram, then a new
Current
audiogram is generated in the
Compare Audiograms
fea-
ture box list, and what was previously the current audiogram consequently becomes a historical one, displayed with
measurement date.
5. If you deselect the viewing of a
Current
audiogram so that it is no longer shown, then it will instantly be reselected if
you try to edit a curve.
6. You can keep any previously collected audiogram visible in the graph while collecting the current audiogram simply by
keeping it selected in the
Compare Audiograms
feature box while measuring.
