Verification
•
Depending on your settings, you can select the type of verification to be used: The
lowest stimulus intensity, where the reflex criterion was met, may be retested for
reproducibility, or the next one or two intensity levels can be used to confirm the
reflex growth properties.

Reflex Decay testing
A.
Select
Activate manual testing mode
B.
Automatic testing
:
Start stimuli, all selected levels
C.
Scroll wheel
Select stimulus level
Select stimulus type and presentation side (ipsi/contra)
The decay test stimulus level pre-supposes that there is a reflex threshold available for the ear, stimulus type and stimulus
ear (ipsi- or contralateral) that is chosen for reflex decay testing. The decay test stimulus level will then automatically be
set to the threshold level +10 dB. If the reflex has not been determined, the decay measurement will be skipped.
If no reflex threshold is available, the stimulus level is
Off
. This is useful for admittance monitoring.
For a maximum amount of monitoring time, set the

setting to 26 seconds. The res-
ulting curve can be saved as an ordinary decay graph.
Note
•
There may be a warning that the stimulus level is in the extended intensity range. Reflex decay may not
be possible due to highly elevated threshold levels.
Max. intensity levels
500 Hz
1000 Hz
Ipsi
50 to 105 dB HL ± 3 dB
50 to 120 dB HL ± 3 dB
Contra
50 to 115 dB HL ± 3 dB
50 to 120 dB HL ± 3 dB
Before reflex testing
1. Do as described in
.
1. Inform the patient about the high stimulus levels in the test.
2. Ask the patient to sit very still and quiet during the test, without moving head or jaw.
3. If contralateral stimulation is used in the test, make sure that both the ipsilateral probe and the contralateral phone
are in place before you start the measurement.
4. If needed, toggle the
Ear Selector
to select the ear on which you wish to start the test.
