Overview
AI-generated summary, 19 Sep 2026
An auditory impedance tester is a device that is intended to change the air pressure in the external auditory canal and measure and graph the mobility characteristics of the tympanic membrane to evaluate the functional condition of the middle ear. The Interacoustics Model AZ26 is an electroacoustic clinical impedance audiometer used by clinicians to perform diagnostic hearing evaluations.
The device generates controlled test tones and signals, including tympanometry, acoustic reflex, and air conduction audiometry. It is supplied as a non-sterile, reusable device for use in clinical settings such as audiology or ENT clinics. No information regarding MRI safety, specific sizes, storage conditions, or additional authorisations beyond the FDA 510(k) clearance (K990652) is provided in the data.
