Fitting hearing aids is a client-centered process that starts with audiometry and ends with a satisfied client.
A complete package
That is why the Affinity 2.0 is the perfect solution for achieving this goal. The Affinity 2.0 combines easy to use hardware and software interfaces that integrate audiologic, hearing instrument evaluation, verification and counseling modules controlled from your laptop or desktop PC.

Audiometry Module
As new hearing aid technologies evolve – so will the Affinity 2.0. The modules will be upgraded as new stimuli or other advanced techniques become available. All associated client records are stored through Noah or OtoAccess™ database. This software concept also allows you to include other Interacoustics modules within the same suite, e.g. VIOT.

The Affinity 2.0 permits personalized test configurations to match your clinical needs. It includes a set of tests that may be modified to quickly get you up and running to your own standards and stored for future use.
These user defined protocols are saved under a unique name for easy recall via a drop down menu. This enables multiple users to make test selections that are suitable for their own applications. Larger clinics or dispensing facilities will find this feature useful as these protocols can be downloaded and transferred to these sites over the internet.

Hearing Instrument testing
The Skull Simulator SKS10
For many years, clinicians prescribing bone anchored hearing instruments have raised the question: “How can I check that the bone anchored hearing instrument is functioning as it should?”
Since there was no way of checking the devices, many bone anchored hearing instruments may have been unnecessarily replaced, creating a frustrating situation for both the patient and the clinician.

Printouts and reports – design your own
Design your own print templates with the Print Wizard adding elements from audiometry (e.g. tone and speech audiogram) as well as elements from REM or even other Interacoustics Suites (e.g. impedance and video otoscopy).
The built-in Report Editor functions as a place for holding comments. The function can be u
sed as both a summary page and a place for important test observations.
The written report is saved with the test results and made available whenever the session is recalled.
Sales and counseling
A Visible Speech Mapping module is available with the Affinity 2.0 to assist you in educating the client and family members on the complexities of hearing aid amplification and the benefits they will receive. Likewise, the for Hearing Loss Simulation (HLS440) and Master Hearing Aid (MHA440) modules engage clients and relatives in the fitting process which is especially important in establishing the trust and confidence of first-time users.
