Visit Supplier
Sourced in United Kingdom

The Sennheiser Unity PC audiometer is a professional-grade device designed for conducting hearing assessments. It provides accurate and reliable measurements of an individual's hearing thresholds, which are essential for diagnosing and monitoring hearing-related conditions. The Unity PC audiometer is suitable for use in clinical settings, research laboratories, and other professional environments where precise hearing evaluation is required.

Pure-tone air conduction thresholds (0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8 kHz) were obtained for each ear and pure-tone bone conduction thresholds as required (0.5, 1, and 2 kHz), following the procedure recommended by the British Society of Audiology (BSA 2004 ), using a Siemens (Crawley, West Sussex, UK) Unity PC audiometer, Sennheiser (Hanover, Germany) HDA-200 headphones, and B71 Radioear (New Eagle, PA) transducer in a sound-attenuating booth. Otoscopy was performed and middle ear function was assessed by standard clinical tympanometry by using a GSI Tympstar (Grason-Stadler, Eden Prairie, MN).

Outer and middle ear functions were checked by otoscopy and standard clinical tympanometry using a GSI Tympstar (Grason-Stadler, Eden Prairie, MN, USA). Pure-tone air conduction thresholds (0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 kHz) were obtained for each ear, following the procedure recommended by the British Society of Audiology (British Society of Audiology, 2011 ), using a Siemens (Crawley, West Sussex, UK) Unity PC audiometer, Sennheiser (Hannover, Germany) HDA-200 headphones, and a B71 Radioear (New Eagle, PA, USA) transducer in a sound-attenuating booth. The better-ear-average (BEA) across octave frequencies 0.5–4 kHz was derived and is reported here.

Comprehensive Audiometric Assessment and Cognitive Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Audiometric testing took place at the initial screening assessment. Otoscopy was performed according to the BSA recommended procedure for ear examinations (British Society of Audiology 2010 ). Unaided pure-tone air conduction thresholds at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8 kHz were obtained for each ear and pure-tone bone conduction thresholds at 0.5, 1, and 2 kHz as required, following the BSA recommended procedure for pure-tone audiometry (British Society of Audiology 2011 ). Thresholds were obtained in a sound-attenuated booth using a Siemens Unity PC audiometer, Sennheiser HDA-200 headphones, and B71 Radioear transducer.
The Montreal Cognitive Assessment was administered by a researcher in a quiet testing room. Scores were adjusted according to education level and a score of 26/30 or greater was considered to indicate normal cognitive function (Nasreddine et al. 2005 (link)).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
