SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC – Comprehensive Middle Ear and Hearing Diagnostics

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC from PATH MEDICAL is a comprehensive diagnostic audiology system designed to combine middle-ear assessment, cochlear testing, and diagnostic audiometry within a single platform.

The system brings together multi-frequency tympanometry, acoustic reflex testing, Eustachian tube function testing, eSRT, OAE, and full diagnostic audiometry, helping hearing-care professionals perform a broad range of audiological assessments without switching between multiple devices.

One of its key features is the ability to record four tympanometry probe-tone frequencies simultaneously – 226 Hz, 678 Hz, 800 Hz, and 1000 Hz – providing multiple traces from a single measurement.

With additional capabilities including binaural DPOAE and TEOAE testing, FMDPOAE® technology, diagnostic audiometry, and advanced electrophysiological protocols, SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC provides a flexible solution for comprehensive hearing assessment.

Multi-Frequency Tympanometry in a Single Measurement

Conventional tympanometry commonly uses a 226 Hz probe tone. SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC expands middle-ear assessment by recording multiple probe-tone frequencies simultaneously.

The system records:

• 226 Hz
• 678 Hz
• 800 Hz
• 1000 Hz

Instead of performing separate measurements for different frequencies, all four probe tones can be recorded within a single measurement.

The results are automatically displayed as a 3D graph, allowing the clinician to review the multi-frequency tympanometry results directly on the device.

Class 1 Tympanometry

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC provides advanced tympanometry capabilities for evaluating middle-ear function.

Its multi-frequency approach gives hearing-care professionals access to additional information beyond conventional single-frequency tympanometry, supporting comprehensive middle-ear assessment across different clinical applications.

Acoustic Reflex Testing

The system supports comprehensive Acoustic Reflex testing, including:

• Ipsilateral Acoustic Reflex.
• Contralateral Acoustic Reflex.
• Automatic Tympanometry and Reflex test sequences.

Combining tympanometry and reflex testing within the same platform helps simplify the middle-ear assessment workflow.

eSRT for Cochlear Implant Applications

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC also supports eSRT – Electrically Evoked Stapedius Reflex Threshold applications.

This provides an additional measurement option for professional teams working with cochlear implant candidates and recipients as part of appropriate clinical protocols.

Eustachian Tube Function Testing

The system includes Eustachian Tube Function testing, allowing hearing-care professionals to evaluate Eustachian tube function as part of a broader middle-ear assessment.

Combining this capability with tympanometry and acoustic reflex measurements allows multiple middle-ear assessments to be performed within the same system.

Advanced OAE Testing

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC extends beyond middle-ear assessment by incorporating DPOAE and TEOAE testing for objective evaluation of cochlear outer hair cell function.

This allows professionals to assess both middle-ear and cochlear function using the same diagnostic platform.

FMDPOAE® Technology

The system incorporates PATH MEDICAL's patented FMDPOAE® – Frequency-Modulated DPOAE technology.

FMDPOAE® stimulation is designed to address gaps that may occur at certain frequencies in conventional DPOAE traces, supporting detailed and readable cochlear response measurements.

Binaural DPOAE and TEOAE Testing

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC supports binaural OAE testing, allowing two probes to test both ears within the same testing workflow.

Both DPOAE and TEOAE measurements are supported, helping improve workflow efficiency when objective cochlear assessment is required.

Cochlear Assessment and Estimated Cochlear Audiogram

An optional threshold mode can use OAE responses to generate an estimated cochlear audiogram, providing additional information about cochlear function without moving the patient to another testing system.

This further expands the diagnostic capabilities available through the SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC platform.

Comprehensive Diagnostic Audiometry

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC also provides screening and diagnostic audiometry for different age groups.

Available audiometry capabilities include:

Pure Tone Audiometry

The system supports Pure Tone Audiometry using:

• Air Conduction.
• Bone Conduction.

This allows hearing thresholds to be assessed as part of a comprehensive audiological evaluation.

Speech Audiometry

Speech Audiometry is available for speech-based hearing assessment, adding another important component to the diagnostic audiology workflow.

Play Audiometry

The system also supports Play Audiometry for appropriate pediatric behavioral hearing assessment.

This extends the flexibility of the device when working with children who are able to participate in age-appropriate behavioral testing.

Advanced AEP Testing

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC also supports a range of Auditory Evoked Potential (AEP) protocols for objective hearing assessment.

Available protocols include:

• ABR.
• ASSR.
• eABR.
• eCochG.
• VEMP.

These capabilities expand the system beyond tympanometry, OAE, and behavioral audiometry to support more comprehensive diagnostic applications.

Assess the Middle Ear and Cochlea Without Switching Devices

One of the main advantages of SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC is the ability to combine multiple stages of audiological assessment within one system.

Professionals can perform:

• Multi-frequency Tympanometry.
• Acoustic Reflex testing.
• Eustachian Tube Function testing.
• eSRT.
• DPOAE.
• TEOAE.
• Diagnostic Audiometry.
• AEP measurements.

This provides a more integrated workflow for evaluating different parts of the auditory system without repeatedly moving the patient between separate testing devices.

Automatic Test Sequences

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC supports an automatic Tympanometry and Acoustic Reflex test sequence, helping streamline routine middle-ear assessment.

Results can be displayed directly on the system, including the automatic 3D visualization of multi-frequency tympanometry measurements.

This helps professionals review the available information during the examination without requiring the results to be exported to another system first.

Patient Data Management and Connectivity

SENTIERO TYMP DIAGNOSTIC includes patient data management capabilities designed to support professional audiology workflows.

The system is also NOAH compatible, helping integrate test results and patient information into established audiological data-management environments.
