6 Imagine Hearing Instruments Imagine The Most Complete, Advanced Line of Hearing Instruments Thanks to Think Technology and the extraordinary features it makes possible, Imagine is the most advanced line of hearing instruments ever, designed to fit the widest range of patients and lifestyles. 4
7 Think Technology Proven Performance. Maximum Everything. At the heart of every Imagine hearing aid is NuEar s state-ofthe-art integrated circuit platform, Think Technology. Powered by multi-core technology, Think Technology triples the processing power of previous platforms, enabling industry leading feedback cancellation, superior integrated noise management, live real ear measurement, and, now, the first BTE with touch control. It s engineered from the ground up to deliver maximum performance, comfort and personalization. 5
8 Imagine Feature Summary Imagine boasts NuEar s newest, best-in-class features, so your patients can experience more with superior comfort, greater clarity, improved directionality and speech audibility. Leave it to NuEar to bring the simplicity of touch control to the hearing aid industry. Our new React Touch Control replaces tiny buttons and dials with an intuitive touch surface. Now patients can make volume and memory adjustments with the sweep or touch of a finger. All Imagine standard hearing instruments feature Advanced HydraShield, NuEar s proprietary moisture protection system that integrates nano-coating, unibody construction and smart component placement. The result is a hearing aid uniquely designed to have superior water resistance both inside and out. NuEar s industry-leading Active Feedback Suppressor puts Imagine in a class all its own with more robust feedback cancellation and intelligent artifact elimination to ensure your patients get the best possible performance in every listening environment. Environmental Sound Perception (ESP) is NuEar s newest integrated system for maximizing performance in noise and preserving speech recognition. Able to instantly classify incoming signals based on unique acoustic characteristics, ESP can seamlessly select and implement the most appropriate algorithms individually or collectively, resulting in the best possible acoustic response at every moment in time. The result is the highest level of patient comfort and clarity in noise while emphasizing speech preservation. Based on clinical performance measures and patient-proven results ClearFocus 2, our industry-leading directional system, is designed to better perform in highly complex backgrounds of noise. Imagine boasts the highest mean DI scores and the lowest operational noise floor, helping patients significantly increase their understanding in noise. 6
9 In addition to superior directionality, NuEar s new acoustic pattern recognition system, SoundClass EA, with patented, real-time environment detection and classification, adapts to any listening environment by seamlessly adjusting to the patient s preferred settings. An important part of this patented classification process includes a channel-specific signal-to-noise ratio calculation to ensure that speech is always given priority. NuEar was the first company to integrate real-ear measurement into a hearing aid. Now Live Real Ear Measurement in the Imagine takes this capability to the next level. With this system and the power of Inspire fitting software, you can see the hearing aid output in your patient s ear, in real-ear SPL, while the system evaluates the hearing aid response and matches to your selected target providing you with the most precise fitting information available. T 2 is a new breakthrough technology from NuEar that allows your patients to control their hearing aids using any cell or touch-tone phone, avoiding the need to carry additional hardware. T 2 discreetly and instantly classifies the touch-tone signal and automatically adjusts. Voice Indicators alert your patient to the status of their hearing aid, low battery, memory and telephone modes in their choice of male or female voices in a wide variety of languages. Self Check allows you and your patients to perform a diagnostic check of the microphone, circuit and receiver by opening and closing the battery door three times. This information is then retained for you to view and use in counseling. Reminder offers you the option of programming audible voice or tone reminders for follow-up appointments and maintenance checks. Automatic Telephone Solutions (ATS) automatically detects telephone use and adjusts to the optimal acoustic frequency response for telephone listening. Music & Television Performance offers new memory programs designed for optimal performance for two of the most important environments based on patient feedback. 7
10 Imagine Feature Summary, cont d With Inspire 2010 you now have a more personal, accurate way to fit and counsel your patient including enhanced Live Real Ear Measurement*, Live Speech Mapping and e-stat. A precise fitting is critical to creating successful patient outcomes, which is why this system is integrated into all Imagine models and technology levels. Live 3D Speech Mapping allows you to verify how the hearing aid processes speech, or any live acoustic input, in real time. Additionally, the Live Speech Mapping display engages the patient and family in the fitting process, resulting in greater understanding and acceptance. With Lifestyle Solutions, you can discuss the various environments your patients experience throughout their daily lives to help determine the technology level that is most appropriate for their lifestyle. Let patients and their loved ones experience the impact hearing loss can have by giving a live demonstration with our Hearing Loss Simulator, which has been enhanced to feature writing tools that allow you to draw or make comments directly on the screen that can be printed out for your patients. Surround Town continues to be the best breakthrough audio simulator of its time and gives your patients a deeper understanding of real-world listening environments and challenges. *Available on BTE Spring

Measurement Conditions and Recommendations The data for Intro are obtained and performance is expressed according to ANSI S3.22 (2003), IEC (2005) and IEC (1983) with Amendment 1 ( ). The NuEar proprietary Real Time Analyzer as well as the NuEar Automated Design Verification Test System comprise the basic test equipment. Data may be subject to change with product refinement. Because of the adaptive signal processing capabilities of Intro hearing instruments, the hearing instrument must be set to test mode to compare the actual performance of the hearing instrument with these specifications. Intro hearing instruments may be set to test mode with Inspire by reading the hearing aid and selecting the Hearing Aid Test screen from the menu on the left side of the Inspire window, then selecting the Full On Gain button. RF IMMUNITY LEVEL: These hearing instruments have a cell phone immunity rating of M4/T4. For your cell phone to be compatible with these hearing instruments, the cell phone needs an immunity rating of M1/T1 or higher. Please consult your cell phone specifications for your cell phone immunity rating. 45

51 Earmold Selections Earmold Style Versus Hearing Loss 50 Factors to Consider When Choosing Materials 50 Custom Earmold Colors 50 Available Materials 51 Custom Earmold Materials 52 Custom Earmold Styles 53 Earmold Selections
52 Earmold Selections Earmold Style Versus Hearing Loss When selecting the style of earmold, consider the type of hearing instrument prescribed. Please note that high gain instruments require a tighter seal than mild gain instruments. Shell and Skeleton molds generally provide the best acoustic seal. Severity of Hearing Loss Earmold Style Mild Moderate Severe-Profound Receiver Shell Half Shell Canal Canal Lock Skeleton Semi-Skeleton Non-Occluding Earmold Selections Factors to Consider When Choosing Materials Texture of the ear: A soft ear will make insertion of an earmold more difficult. In this case, a rigid mold would be a better choice. Possible allergies to material: There are a variety of materials that are less likely to cause an allergic reaction. These non-allergenic materials can be either rigid or soft. Power of hearing instrument: A high power hearing instrument will have more of a tendency to feed back than a mild gain instrument. A softer material will tend to seal better than a rigid material. There are several materials available offering a range of softness. Custom Earmold Colors Please note that color availability and appearance will vary according to material and specific style. Camouflage and glitter based colors are also available. Please consult the order form or your sales representative for specific ordering instructions. Custom colors can also be created using a mixing process. Contact your sales representative for additional information. 50
53 Available Materials Most Rigid Lucite Lucite is a clear, rigid acrylic material. It is the most commonly used earmold material. It is cosmetically appealing and available in all styles and various colors. Lucite is easily modified by the hearing care professional. Digital SLS Earmolds made by scanning and modeling in a virtual setting of stereolithography are known as Digital SLS. Digital SLS is a process technology that optimizes earmold fit for comfort and performance. It is available in a Lucite, clear form on the following selected styles: direct tube, shell, ¾ shell, half shell, canal, canal lock, and non-occluding type G. Lucite with Flex Canal The Flex Canal mold combines the cosmetic and convenient properties of Lucite with the comfort and sealing properties of Starflex. It is recommended for fitting moderate to severe hearing losses. It is available in all styles except non-occluding. Flex Canals are not compatible with acoustic modifiers. Polyethylene Polyethylene is a smooth, waxy, non-allergenic material which is fairly rigid. White is the only color available. Modification of polyethylene is not recommended. This material is recommended only for cases where an allergy problem has been determined. Also, it is recommended that an elbow attachment be used for polyethylene molds. Starflex Starflex is a translucent, flexible plastic. It conforms to the shape of the ear and becomes softer at body temperature. It provides a good acoustic seal for high gain instruments. Modification of Starflex is more difficult than Lucite and this material may harden after several months of use. Ultraflex Ultraflex is a very soft, yet durable vinyl material. It gives a good acoustic seal for high gain hearing instruments. It is recommended for fitting severe losses, pediatric molds or for patients who cannot tolerate hard materials. Modification is not recommended. Silicone Silicone (medical grade) shares the softness and durability qualities of Ultraflex, but is non-allergenic. It is recommended when a soft material is needed and an allergy problem has been determined. As with Ultraflex, modification is not recommended. A Vinyl Anchor is also a suggested option. Floatable swim plugs are available for children and adults of all ages. There are 11 colors available. Floatable swim plugs are not available in Clear. Heat cured (non-floatable) silicone is available for earplugs and earmolds. These are very comfortable to wear, especially for ear protection in industrial areas, at home or at play. Pediatric earmolds are made from this material because it is soft. It is available in 11 vibrant colors. Biopore silicone works well for canal and half shell fittings and is very comfortable for both earmolds and earplugs. Available colors include Clear, Flesh, Red and Blue. ProSeal Softest ProSeal is the softest earmold material available, but because of its extreme softness, ProSeal molds can be difficult to insert. This durable material provides an excellent seal and is recommended for fitting severe hearing losses. As with other soft materials, modifications are not recommended. A Vinyl Anchor is recommended to help retain the tubing. ProSeal molds are available in translucent Flesh, Clear and Brown colors. 51

55 Custom Earmold Styles RIC Earmold RIC Open Earmolds are a hollow canal style shell in hard acrylic created with Digital SLS. These earmolds fit all NuEar RIC hearing instruments. Additional RIC earmold options include: canal locks, occluded earmolds, and soft material. Shown in Clear Lucite. Open Fit EF Mold Open Fit EF Molds are a hollow canal shell style in hard acrylic created with Digital SLS. These earmolds support thin tube fittings on standard BTEs. Some other custom tube holders may be used depending on size. A Canal Lock version is also available for added retention. Select-a-vent option also available. Shown in Clear Lucite. Shell Mold The Shell Mold (sculpted) is exceptionally sturdy and lightweight and is recommended for fitting moderate and severe hearing losses. It provides an effective seal to reduce the likelihood of feedback. Shown in Blue Lucite. 3/4 Shell Mold This earmold features removal of the helix for ease of insertion and is available in the same materials as the Shell Mold. Shown in Red Lucite. 53
56 CANAL Custom Earmold Styles, cont d Half Shell Mold The Half Shell Mold offers a comfortable and lightweight fit. Its size provides easy insertion and removal. Because of its smaller size and lack of a helix area, the Half Shell is not recommended for fitting severe hearing losses. Shown in Brown Lucite. CANAL LOCK HALF SHELL Canal Mold The Canal Mold is the second smallest mold available and offers superior comfort and cosmetic appeal. Canal earmolds require a long ear canal for good retention. Because of its size, the Canal Mold is not recommended for fitting severe hearing losses. Shown in Clear Lucite. Canal Lock Mold The Canal Lock Mold is similar to the Canal Mold with an added protrusion in the concha. It is designed to be small and inconspicuous like a Canal Mold, but with better retention. The Canal Lock is also not recommended for fitting severe hearing losses. Shown in Brown Lucite. DIRECT TUBE SHELL SKELETON SEMI-SKELETON Skeleton Mold The Skeleton Mold is the most popular earmold available because it provides maximum comfort and retention. It is appropriate for fitting mild to severe hearing losses and can be easily modified to other styles. Shown in Red Lucite. NON-OCCLUDING A NON-OCCLUDING B 54
57 SHELL Semi-Skeleton Mold The Semi-Skeleton Mold is inconspicuous and lightweight and provides good retention for most ears. It is recommended for ears with distorted or flat concha areas or for those with limited dexterity who require easier insertion. Shown in Orange Lucite. SKELETON SEMI-SKELETON CIC Mold CIC (completely-in-canal) Earmolds are hidden in the ear canal and provide for discreet fittings. This is the smallest earmold available. Available in all materials. Shown in Clear Lucite. NON-OCCLUDING Non-Occluding A Mold Non-Occluding A Molds provide a retention ring for the tube without occluding the ear. Style A differs from B in that the canal portion is finished with material the length of the tube. Non- Occluding A Molds are recommended for patients with normal hearing to 1500 Hz, or for patients who use tinnitus maskers or CROS instruments. Shown in Flesh Lucite. NON-OCCLUDING JANSSEN Non-Occluding B Mold Non-Occluding B Molds provide a retention ring for the tube without occluding the ear. Non-Occluding B Molds are recommended for patients with normal hearing to 1500 Hz, or for patients who use tinnitus maskers or cross instruments. Shown in Red Lucite. Receiver Mold The Receiver Mold is used with an external receiver that is snapped into the mold. Appropriate applications include: body aids, stethoscopes, anesthesiologists scopes and other listening devices. Shown in Blue Lucite. ARISTA-LITE MOLD ASPECT EF RECEIVER CIC CANAL 55
