11.3.1
Diagnostic tympanometry
Note
•
It is recommended that you perform a tym-
panometric test before making any acoustic reflex
measurement, and determine the acoustic reflex
threshold before making a reflex decay meas-
urement.
The default setup available in the tympanometry test is
designed for any of the tympanometry tests you can per-
form. Adjust the settings to suit your purposes.
Preparing for testing
1. Do as described in
.
2. 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.
3. Ask the patient to sit very still and quiet during the test, without moving head or jaw.
4. If needed, toggle the
Ear Selector
to select the ear on which you wish to start the test.
Procedure
1. Select the
Tympanometry
test screen.
If you are using OTOsuite:
–
In the
Tympanometry
screen, click
Start
on the Control Panel.
Warning
•
If the patient is troubled by the test, stop the test. The test is interrupted and
the pump pressure is relieved immediately.Already measured results are kept.
Already measured results are kept.
or
The test progresses as follows:
–
The pump increases the pressure to the set value, and the sweep starts.
–
The admittance for each pressure point is plotted out on the screen and forms the tym-
panogram curve.
–
Tympanometric test results are shown in a results view in the top right corner of the win-
dow.
