Sanibel Supply® introduces the EARturtle™

On September 1, Sanibel Supply® introduced a new disposable ear coupler for auditory brainstem response (ABR)testing in infants: the EARturtle™.

Resembling a turtle shell in shape and form, the EARturtle™ is placed over the baby’s ear for non-intrusive ABR testing.

The EARturtle™ is distributed by Hearing Screening Associates (HSA) in the US.

What does the EARturtle™ have to offer?

The main benefit of the EARturtle™ is its flexibility, as it can be used with the RadioEar IP30 and Sanibel Supply® EARturtle™ adapter and similar transducer couplers. Thus, it can be used with various equipment for ABR testing.

Jakob Skovgaard, Business Unit Manager, Sanibel Supply®, comments:

“Our goal is to make it easy for users of diagnostic hearing equipment to acquire quality consumables. With the EARturtle™, we offer a consumable that can help to make ABR newborn hearing screening a more widely adopted discipline, which is very important in our eyes.”

Other benefits worth of note

  1. Safe to apply on sensitive skin

The EARturtle™ complies with ISO 10993-1:2018, ensuring it is safe to apply on the sensitive skin of babies.

  1. Equivalent RETSPLs to other disposable ear couplers

The EARturtle™ RETSPL values are equivalent to the EarCup™ and other known disposable ear couplers.

  1. Equivalent performance to other disposable ear couplers

The EARturtle™ has a relatively flat frequency response in the range from 350 Hz to 5.5 kHz, which is equivalent to the EarCup™ and other known disposable ear couplers.
