Overview

AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

The Interacoustics Clinical Impedance Audiometer AZ26 is an electroacoustic test instrument classified as an Auditory Impedance Tester. It measures hearing function by generating controlled test tones and signals for diagnostic evaluations, including tympanometry, acoustic reflex testing, and air conduction audiometry. These assessments aid in diagnosing otologic disorders and assessing middle ear function. The device operates within the regulatory scope of Class II medical devices under FDA guidelines.

Supplied for clinical use in Ear, Nose, and Throat settings, the AZ26 is a reusable, non-sterile instrument designed for professional audiometric testing. It adheres to FDA clearance (K942007) and is intended for use by trained audiologists or hearing specialists. The device features adjustable parameters for tympanometry and acoustic reflex testing, with no MRI compatibility restrictions. Storage and maintenance follow manufacturer guidelines to ensure accurate performance over its operational lifespan.

Questions

AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

  • What clinical conditions does the AZ26 help diagnose using tympanometry and acoustic reflex testing?

    The AZ26 Clinical Impedance Audiometer AZ26 is designed to assess middle ear function and diagnose otologic disorders through tympanometry and acoustic reflex testing. Tympanometry evaluates middle ear pressure and mobility, while acoustic reflex testing measures the contraction of middle ear muscles in response to loud sounds. These tests help identify conditions such as fluid in the middle ear, perforated eardrums, or issues with the ossicles, ensuring accurate diagnosis for patients with hearing or balance concerns.

  • Is the AZ26 a single-use or reusable device, and what are the maintenance requirements?

    The AZ26 is a reusable, non-sterile instrument intended for professional use in clinical settings. To maintain accuracy and performance, it must be cleaned and calibrated according to the manufacturer’s guidelines after each use. Proper storage and regular maintenance are critical to ensure reliable test results over its operational lifespan, as outlined in the device’s user manual.

  • What types of environments is the AZ26 intended for, and does it have any compatibility restrictions?

    The AZ26 is supplied for clinical use in Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) settings, where audiologists or hearing specialists perform diagnostic evaluations. It is not MRI-compatible, meaning it should not be used or stored near MRI machines, as electromagnetic interference could affect its performance or safety.

  • What regulatory approvals does the AZ26 hold, and who is authorized to operate it?

    The AZ26 holds FDA clearance under 510(k) number K942007, classified as a Class II medical device. It is intended for use by trained audiologists or hearing specialists, as these professionals are qualified to interpret test results and diagnose hearing-related conditions based on the device’s measurements.

  • What specific tests does the AZ26 perform, and how do they contribute to patient assessment?

    The AZ26 performs tympanometry (measuring middle ear pressure and mobility), acoustic reflex testing (evaluating muscle responses to sound), and air conduction audiometry (assessing hearing sensitivity across frequencies). These tests collectively help clinicians assess middle ear function, identify conductive hearing loss, and diagnose conditions like otitis media or Eustachian tube dysfunction, ensuring comprehensive patient evaluation.
