Abstract

An apparatus for use in an audiologic test includes a probe extending along a longitudinal axis from a first end to a second end, the first end configured for insertion into an ear-canal of a person, the second end being opposite to the first end; wherein the probe comprises a probe part between the first end and the second end, the probe part having a first port; and wherein the probe further comprises a holder fixed to the probe part, the holder being configured to be held by an operator of the probe.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a hearing test probe and the use of such a probe. In particular, the present disclosure relates to a probe for performing hearing tests, such as tympanometry and / or otoacoustic emission testing. Background technique [0002] In order to perform tympanometry and / or otoacoustic emission testing, it is important that the probe that enters the ear canal of the person to be tested is positioned correctly within the ear canal. Also, it is important to provide proper pressure to the probe to ensure that an airtight seal exists between the ear canal and the probe. Difficulty manipulating existing probes to ensure proper positioning. Contents of the invention [0003] Despite known solutions, there is still a need for a probe for hearing testing that is easy to handle and easy to position correctly. [0004] Thus, a probe for performing an auditory test is provided. The stylet extends along a longitudinal axis from a firs...
