Otoacoustic Emissions - Resources
The Titan by Interacoustics is one of our most popular and frequently ordered pieces of equipment. Not only because of its portability and ease of use, but also because of the breadth of testing it can perform. Otoacoustic emission (OAE) testing is one of the most commonly ordered modules for the Titan. The modules available include:
- Screening DPOAE – (1000- 6000Hz)
- Screening TEOAE (1000-4000Hz)
- Clinical DPOAE (500-10KHz) + pressurised OAE
- Clinical TEOAE (500-5500Hz) + pressurised OAE
Given the popularity of the OAE module, we thought it might be helpful to consolidate all of our OAE resources into one handy place for you to review as needed.
A great place to start is ‘A guide to Otoacoustic Emissions’ which is a 43 page document covering the theory of OAE's, testing considerations, protocol settings and analysis/interpretation of results.
If you’re more of a visual learner, the Interacoustics YouTube channel also has a variety of videos to view at your leisure. Of particular note are the webinars by OAE specialist Dr Peter Bray. Dr Bray’s OAE series breaks down the different types of OAE's and the technologies available to help achieve a good recording.

For those customers with clinical OAE modules, the webinar on ‘pressurised OAE’ is a must watch. This webinar will have you feeling confident on how and when to run your pressurised OAE protocol for your clients with type C tymps - particularly important for those working in ENT clinics or with paediatric populations.

Finally, our Interacoustics Academy continue to be a great source of educational material for audiology professionals. Of particular interest to those of you performing OAE's, or wanting to start, is their Tutorials page. These tutorials are short and easily digested. A great place to start learning about OAEs on the Interacoustics Titan. We recommend you check out their selection of OAE ones as well as taking a look through more of their excellent Webinars on OAE's.
