The Next Generation Impedance
Platform Titan represents the next generation impedance platform in a
long series of middle ear analyzers developed and marketed
from Interacoustics over the past 40 years. Titan
offers full clinical level middle ear analysis with multiple
probe tones (226, 678, 800 and 1000 Hz), multiple Eustachian
Tube tests (intact, perforated and patulous), full
reflex battery ipsi/contra, decay and latency as well as
automatic and manual pump
control.
It can
be operated either as a handheld or PC-controlled instrument
with the ability to print on a small thermal printer or to a connected
PC printer.
Compatibility Titan PC suite is compatible with Windows
XP and Vista and can be operated either in stand-alone mode or on top
of a database, which can be either NOAH 3.6.1 (or higher) or
Interacoustics’ own OtoAccess™ for data storage and
retrieval.
Titan is
offered in
three different
versions

"High frequency (HF) probe tones and thermal
printer is optional in all three
versions".
Frequency: 226 Hz, 678 Hz, 800 Hz, 1000 Hz
Level: 69 dB HL with AGC option for assuring constant level at different ear canal volumes.
Air pressure:
Control: Automatic.
Indicator: Measured value is displayed on the graphical display.
Range: -600 to +300 daPa.
Pressure limitation: -750 daPa and +550 daPa.
Pressure change rate: Very slow, Slow, Medium, Fast, Automatic with slow speed at compliance peak. Selectable in the set-up.
Compliance
Range: 0.1 to 8.0 ml at 226 Hz probe tone (Ear volume: 0.1 to 8.0 ml) and 0.1 to 15 mmho at 678, 800 and 1000 Hz probe tone.
Test types:
Tympanometry Automatic, where the start and stop pressure can be user programmed in the set-up function.
Manual control of all functions.
ETF1 – Non perforated eardrum (Williams test)
ETF2 – Perforated eardrum (Toynbee test)
ETF3 – Patulous Eustachian tube (Continuous sensitive impedance measurement for 30 up to 150s.)
Indicators:
Graphical display compliance is indicated as ml and pressure as daPa. In PC-controlled mode admittance, susceptance and conductance can be printed.
Stimulus level is indicated as dB Hearing Level.
Memory:
Tympanometry: 1 curve per ear per tympanometry test. 3 curves per ear per Eustachian tube function test. Theoretically, an infinite number of tests per protocol.
Signal sources:
Tone - Contra, Reflex: 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 6000, 8000 Hz.
Tone - Ipsi, Reflex: 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000 Hz.
NB noise - Contra, Reflex: 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 6000, 8000 Hz.
NB noise - Ipsi, Reflex: 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000 Hz.
Noise - Contra, Reflex: Wide Band, High Pass, Low Pass.
Noise - Ipsi, Reflex: Wide Band, High Pass, Low Pass.
Outputs:
Contra Earphone: TDH39 earphone, EARtone 3A and/or CIR55 insert for Reflex
measurements.
Ipsi Earphone: Probe earphone incorporated in the probe system for Reflex.
Test types:
Manual Reflex. Manual control of all functions.
Automated Reflex:
- Single intensities
- Reflex growth
Reflex Decay. Automatic, 10 dB above threshold and manually controlled with stimulus durations of 10 and 30s.
Reflex latency. Automated, first 300 ms from stimulus start.
USB:
Input/output for computer communication. Titan can be fully operated from PC. The measurements can then be followed on PC screen.
Data can be sent to and saved on the PC and stored in OtoAccess™.
Printer:
Optional thermal printer (wired or BT) as well as print option through PC suite.
