The Otoport Pro device is indicated for use when there is a requirement to screen for hearing disorders by objective and non-invasive means. ABR, TEOAE and DPOAE screening test results are automatically interpreted and a clear "Pass' or 'Refer' result is presented to the device is indicated when the patient is unable to give reliable voluntary responses to sound, especially with infants. Use of the device facilitates the early detection of hearing loss and its characterization. Where the individual to be screened is healthy with no medical conditions related to the ear, as in the case of well-baby hearing screening, the user can be a trained screener. In all other cases the user should be an audiologist or medical professional. The TEOAE and DPOAE analytical functions of the device are indicated when objective non-invasive clinical investigations require the characterization and monitoring of the peripheral auditory function. For this purpose, the device is intended to be used by audiologists or other professionals skilled in audiology. These TEOAE and DPOAE tests are applicable to populations of any age to obtain objective evidence of peripheral auditory function.

The Otodynamics Ltd ("Otodynamics") Otoport Pro device is a compact handheld device capable of high quality OAE measurements for clinical purposes and also automated ABR and OAE testing for fast infant screening. Responses to sound are recorded via an applied earphone and or adhesive surface electrode pad. Specifically, the device can record Otoacoustic Emissions (type DPOAEs or TEOAEs) and auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) to sound. These responses are especially useful in the hearing of infants for deafness. The more detailed analysis of DPOAE and TEOAE responses is additionally useful as a component of the audiological diagnostic test battery. The Otoport Pro is simple to use with customizable automation to make testing easy and the results clear. It has user access controls, graphical display panel, and extensive test database features. The Otoport Pro when configured for clinical use has advanced test features including extensive raw data capture for offline review and analysis if required. Otoport Pro device is a hardware/ software revision of the currently marketed Otoport OAE+ABR, having the same performance and intended uses as the Otoport OAE+ABR device.
