Operating Instructions ERO•SCAN® Database Software
1 Introduction The ERO•SCAN® Database Software is a data management tool that complements the MAICO ERO•SCAN Screener and Diagnostic Plus. It provides the ability to transfer patient OAE test data from the device to a PC for the purposes of viewing, archiving, managing, and printing OAE reports. For Newborn Hearing Screening Programs, the database integrates with 3rd party database tools such as HiTrack and OZ eSP.
1.1 Intended Use The ERO•SCAN Database Software is used to view, archive, and report OAE data acquired from the MAICO ERO•SCAN Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE) unit. Screening and diagnostic data is acquired from the MAICO ERO•SCAN. The ERO•SCAN unit is connected to a PC and the OAE data is transferred to the Database Software. The Database Software can also be a vehicle to generate and transfer patient names to the ERO•SCAN unit. The OAE data is used as part of an audiologic diagnostic evaluation or as part of the infant hearing screening programs for newborns or infants. The results are of interest to the audiologist, olaryngologist, nursing staff, and/or nurse managers. Test results obtained with the ERO•SCAN can only be transferred, viewed, and saved within the Database Software if the device is connected to a PC. Previously acquired data may be viewed for evaluation without a connection to the ERO•SCAN. Data transferred from the ERO•SCAN includes Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emissions (TEOAE) or Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions (DPOAE) from each ear, displayed in graphic and tabular formats. The data will include screening or diagnostic data of both or either OAEs. Screening data will include results that include Pass, Refer, Noise, or No Seal. Diagnostic test results include the absolute responses at each stimulus, the noise floor and/or the Signal to Noise ratio of the response at each stimulus. The patient demographic and test result data is saved to a directory for future retrieval and/or converted to electronic format for transfer to an EMR program. The Database Software provides reports in electronic formats that are compatible with electronic medical records including PDF, RTF, JPEG, TIFF, GIF, PNG, BMP, EMF, and WMF.

Operating Instructions ERO•SCAN® Database Software 2 Setup 2.1 Precautions for Patient Confidentiality
Store a backup of the data in a safe manner. Create backups of patients’ data regularly. To avoid data from being misused if stolen, the data must be encrypted. All users should have a unique login to the PC. When using a third party networked software, the communication to the database should be secure (encrypted) to avoid client information being captured during network transmission. See the third party user manual for details. When using a third party networked software, all users should have a unique login to the database to ensure traceability and identification of data when updated or deleted from the database. See the third party user manual for details.

3 Installation Instructions The ERO•SCAN Database Software is provided with the purchase of each ERO•SCAN device. The installation process can be completed by the CD or a USB thumb drive. For installation from the CD: o Insert CD in to the CD drive. o Use Windows Explorer to navigate to setup.exe. o Double click and follow the instructions. For installation from the USB thumb drive: o Insert the USB thumb drive in to an available USB port on the computer. o Use Windows Explorer to navigate to setup.exe. o Double click and follow the instructions. NOTE: If you already have an older version of application installed, it will be replaced if it was installed from the same path. If you use a different drive for CD, uninstall the older application first manually by using Control Panel. Always make a copy of the database file and store the copied file in a safe location during a new install or upgrade.
3.1 Connecting the ERO•SCAN® to the PC
For connection with USB 1. Make sure the ERO•SCAN is charged. 2. Use a standard USB to micro USB cable. 3. Plug the hexagon connector (micro USB B plug) into the USB port on the ERO•SCAN. 4. Plug the USB connector (A plug) into a USB port on the computer. 5. Power on the PC and launch the Database Software. 6. Power on the ERO•SCAN. 7. The ERO•SCAN will display “Ready” or “Waiting for PC”. 8. The Database Software will automatically detect the ERO•SCAN. 9. The Database Software is now ready for data or name transfer.
For connection with Bluetooth®
NOTE: When pairing to a computer for use with the Database Software, confirm the computer has Bluetooth availability or a Bluetooth dongle will be required. Confirm the Bluetooth settings of the computer are as shown in Figure 1, page 4.

NOTE: The selected Patient Identifiers must be completed in the New Patient record or the names will not be transferred to the device. NOTE: The ERO•SCAN uses two fields to identify the patient. Both fields are visible during the scrolling function to select a patient. After a patient is selected on the device, only the first field is displayed for testing. It is important that the first field is a unique identifier for the examiner to know the correct patient is selected. Language: Language allows the user to select the desired language for the ERO•SCAN Database Manager. Once the language is selected, it will be in use next time the program is started. Languages available are: - English - German - Chinese - Italian NOTE: Depending on the language, it is possible that some words will still be shown in English. NOTE: Language selection for the device is separate from the ERO•SCAN Database Manager. For further information on selecting the language within the device see Section 17.8 Language in the ERO•SCAN Operating Instructions.
