• Audera Pro Clinical Evoked Potentials and OAE system from Grason-Stadler

    AUDERA PRO

    VERSATILE CLINICAL EP/OAE

    The GSI Audera Pro™  is the next generation of an evoked potential and otoacoustic emissions device from GSI. Equipped with the same great features as its predecessor, the Audera Pro also offers numerous updates to support the needs of a modern audiology practice.

    The GSI Audera Pro™ EP/OAE system is a compact yet versatile device, capable of performing all standard evoked potential tests. Depending on the modality license you select, ASSR (auditory steady state responses) and OAE (otoacoustic emissions) can also be included. The Audera Pro is the next generation to the well-known GSI Audera™ and comes with significant updates to support the demands of any busy practice. Some of the featured new tests include: P300/MMN, ASSR Binaural testing, transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE), and Speech Stimuli for ABR. The hardware has been updated to provide a smaller footprint, an integrated pre-amplifier, lightweight cables, and the GSI OAE probe. The system also has modern waveform analysis tools such as Area Ratio for ECochG, application of digital filters, the ability to split alternating waveform into rarefaction and condensation components, cross correlation of waveforms, and automatic SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) and RN (Residual Noise) calculation. Since it's capable of performing so many tests, the Audera Pro makes the perfect choice for clinics that need to comprehensively evaluate, identify, document, and diagnose auditory and vestibular disorders on all patient populations.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q. What configurations are available with the GSI Audera Pro?
A. Available configurations on the Audera Pro include AEP only, AEP and ASSR, AEP and TEOAE/DPOAE, TEOAE/DPOAE only, and a full configuration that includes all test modalities AEP/ASSR/TEOAE/DPOAE.

Q. What tests can be performed with the AEP test modality?
A. The following tests are available with the AEP test modality: ECochG, ABR, MLR, LLR and SN10. In addition, eABR, P300, MMN as well as oVEMP/cVEMP protocols are included.

Q. Is it possible to record bone conduction ASSR?
A. Yes, the Audera Pro includes this feature. It is possible to record ASSRs with all AEP transducers, including insert earphones, headphones, bone oscillator, and the optional amplified speakers.

Q. What OAE tests can be performed with the Audera Pro?
A. The following tests are available: screening (pass/refer) protocols, diagnostic protocols, spontaneous OAE, and DP input/output functions.

Q. Are there objective tools for analyzing waveforms?
A. The Audera Pro includes a variety of objective analysis tools such as cross correlation, SNR, and RN. SNR and RN are objective tools that assist the clinician in determining the presence or absence of a response. Cross correlation is a statistical tool that provides an objective estimate of the similarity of two waveforms. The higher the correlation value, the more similar the waveforms are with “1” being perfect correlation. Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is the ratio of the response from the patient (the ABR, or auditory brainstem response) vs the noise such as the EEG or EMG activity. Residual Noise (RN) is the amount of noise that remains in the response. When a response is present, the SNR should increase, and the RN should decrease during the collection as more sweeps are averaged. The Audera Pro displays RN and SNR for the active waveform as well as saved waveforms.

COMPREHENSIVE BATTERY OF TEST TYPES

The GSI Audera Pro comes equipped with a comprehensive battery of evoked potentials and otoacoustic emissions test types. Optional modality licenses may be purchased, allowing you to perform a combination of different tests: AEP, ASSR, DPOAE, and TEOAE.

  • Audera Pro features multiple analysis

    MULTIPLE ANALYSIS TOOLS

    The Audera Pro includes a variety of objective analysis tools such as cross correlation of two waveforms, real time signal to noise ratio (SNR), and residual noise (RN) estimates to assist the clinician in validating test data from any patient population.

  • Audera Pro features efficient data collection

    EFFICIENT DATA COLLECTION

    Modules of the Audera Pro feature predefined protocols and normative data. On screen options allow for changes in real time. Customized protocols may be added to meet individual testing needs.

  • Audera Pro features CE-Chirp

    LARGER AMPLITUDE WITH CE-CHIRP

    Save time and increase clinical confidence by using the CE-Chirp and CE-Chirp Octave Band stimuli, which have been shown to result in auditory brainstem response amplitudes that are up to two times larger than with traditional test stimuli.
