SHOEBOX - Devices for pediatric audiometry

SHOEBOX is the first clinically validated iPad audiometer. Much more than a portable audiometer, SHOEBOX provides diagnostic accuracy and power in a small mobile form factor.

SCREENING, DIAGNOSTIC & CLINICAL TESTING

This SHOEBOX hearing testing equipment is portable, easy-to-use, cost-efficient. ShoeBOX is both FDA and Health Canada listed and produces the same clinically valid frequency thresholds as traditional audiometry systems that can cost up to five times more.

Used by industry leaders around the world, SHOEBOX Audiometry is clinically validated by peer the reviewed literature and extensive trial studies to perform as well, or better than, traditional audiometry equipment. SHOEBOX comes calibrated with audiometric calibrated headphones and conforms to current ANSI, OSHA and CSA requirements. SHOEBOX is listed as a Class II device by the FDA and Health Canada.
