CA 2681559

A system for determining the hearing ability of an individual comprises a generator for generating a test stimulus signal, a hearing aid (2) having a digital signal processor for processing said test stimulus signal and converting it in order to output an acoustic stimulus signal, and a first synchronizing means. The system further comprises an electrophysiological instrument (1) having a second synchronizing means, and means (7) for establishing from said individual an evoked response to said acoustic signal. The first synchronizing means and said second synchronizing means exchange a synchronization signal in order to synchronize said evoked response to said acoustic stimulus signal. The invention also provides a hearing aid and a method for carrying out electrophysiological measurement of the hearing ability of an individual.

La présente invention concerne un système permettant de déterminer la capacité auditive d'un individu. Ce système est constitué d'un générateur permettant de générer un signal de stimulus de test, une prothèse auditive (2) dotée d'un processeur de signal numérique permettant de traiter ledit signal de stimulus de test et de le convertir afin de produire un signal de stimulus acoustique ainsi qu'un moyen de synchronisation primaire. Le système comprend également un instrument électrophysiologique (1) doté de moyens de synchronisation secondaires ainsi que de moyens (7) permettant d'établir à partir dudit individu une réponse évoquée par ledit signal acoustique. Les moyens de synchronisation primaires et secondaires échangent un signal de synchronisation afin de synchroniser ladite réponse évoquée audit signal de stimulus acoustique. L'invention concerne également une prothèse auditive ainsi qu'un procédé permettant d'effectuer une mesure électrophysiologique de la capacité auditive d'un individu.
