Your field: Otorhinolaryngology
Audiometric data you can build a treatment plan on
Optimal ENT care hinges on precise, reliable diagnostics. You need to reach more patients - never at the expense of accuracy or the integrity of the audiometric data you receive.
Dignified diagnostics, trusted results
What the Kuduwave means for your practice
The Kuduwave screening and diagnostic audiometers help your audiology partners work faster and more cost-effectively - and give you results you can bring into your medical and surgical pathways.
Data integrity
Validated against sound-booth audiometry in peer-reviewed studies, with ambient noise monitored during every test. See the research.
Faster patient pathways
Audiologists can test sooner and closer to the patient, so the results reach your desk earlier and treatment decisions follow faster.
Seamless collaboration
Your audiology partners extend their reach - workplaces, remote sites, the bedside - and bring clinic-grade diagnostics to where your patients are.
Smoother practice flow
No booth to book and no room to build. Testing fits around your clinic rather than the other way round.
The ENT-audiology partnership
Every tiny detail matters
Your work in ear, nose and throat health is complex and often life-changing. For critical diagnoses and effective treatment you rely on accurate audiometric data - which makes your audiology partners indispensable. Your diagnostic pathways depend on their findings.
We built the Kuduwave not only for audiologists but for you, the specialist who relies on their every finding. When an audiologist tests with a Kuduwave, you receive results backed by published research that you can bring into your assessments and surgical planning.
- Pure-tone air and bone conduction and speech audiometry with the Kuduwave Pro
- Tympanometry and acoustic reflexes with the Kuduwave Ultra
- Tele-audiology: the audiologist can test a patient who is somewhere else
Future-proofing your practice
Stay ahead of the curve
Healthcare is changing quickly. Patients expect access, smarter solutions and precision - here is how the Kuduwave helps you lead rather than react.
Agility
Portability and tele-audiology mean your service isn't confined to bricks and mortar - serve patients where and when they need you.
Diagnostic trust
Results your referral partners can rely on, with the published evidence open for anyone to read.
Continuous improvement
Software updates and automated test protocols keep improving the device you already own.
Records that work for you
The GeoAxon software stores and manages patient records and makes results easy to share with your team.
A lean set-up
One headset and a laptop instead of a booth and a rack of equipment - easier to deploy, easier to scale.
The Kuduwave’s results are accurate. You can do the test anywhere with the Kuduwave, as long as you listen to your machine. It is truly portable.
Got questions?
What ENT specialists ask us
Are Kuduwave test results as accurate as testing in a sound booth?
The Kuduwave has been validated against sound-booth audiometry in peer-reviewed studies. The studies set out the conditions under which the results apply - in particular the ambient noise during the test must stay within the limits studied, which the Kuduwave monitors while the test runs.
Is the Kuduwave audiometer truly portable?
Yes. It was designed to be lightweight and portable and to test without a sound booth. It plugs into a laptop with a USB cable and needs no separate power source.
Standards and registration
The benchmarks behind your data
- FDA registered
- Manufactured under a quality management system implemented to ISO 13485
- Designed and calibrated to the IEC, ANSI and SANS standards for audiometry
Beyond the scope
Redefining the ENT-audiology partnership
A definitive ENT diagnosis depends on the audiologist's data. The challenge has always been the gap between the physical examination and timely, reliable audiometry. With the Kuduwave, audiologists can bring portable, dignified diagnostics to the patient and share the results with you for treatment planning.
Uniting the two professions around shared, reliable data streamlines referrals and puts the patient at the centre.
Validation of a Bilateral Simultaneous Computer-Based Tympanometer
Abstract Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the accuracy of bilateral simultaneous tympanometric measurements using a tympanometer with two pneumatic systems inside circumaural ear cups. Method: Fifty-two adults (104 ears), with a mean age of 32 years (SD = 12.39, range: 18–60 years) were included
