As such, the use of this product carries some risk of harm and so it is important that only properly qualified Hearing Care Professionals (HCPs) use Aura:fit fitting software in accordance with this user guide and that they understand and heed the warnings contained herein.
Intended use: The fitting software is the standalone software which is intended to be used by qualified hearing care professionals to configure, program, and fit hearing aids to the intended person’s specific requirements.
This user guide provides a detailed introduction to hearing instrument fitting with Aura:fit. An electronic version can be obtained on unitron.com/aurafit-instructions.
Intended user: The fitting software is intended for qualified hearing care professionals.
Intended patient population: The fitting software is intended for patients with unilateral and bilateral, mild to profound hearing loss or in combination with chronic tinnitus, who require the fitting of a hearing aid. The tinnitus masker feature is intended for patients from 18 years of age and above.
Indications: Indications are not derived from the fitting software, but from compatible hearing aids. General clinical indications for the use of hearing aids and tinnitus masker are:
· Presence of a hearing loss o Unilateral or bilateral o Conductive, sensorineural, or mixed o Mild to profound
· Presence of chronic tinnitus (only for hearing aids which offer tinnitus masker)
Contraindications:
Please note, contraindications are not derived from the fitting software, but from compatible hearing aids. General clinical contraindications for the use of hearing aids and tinnitus masker are:
· Hearing loss is not in the fitting range of the hearing aid (i.e., gain, frequency response) · Acute tinnitus · Deformity of the ear (i.e., closed ear canal, absence of the auricle) · Neural hearing loss (retro-cochlear pathologies such as absent/non-viable auditory nerve)
The primary criteria for the referral of a patient for a medical or other specialist opinion and/or treatment are as follows:
· Visible congenital or traumatic deformity of the ear · History of active drainage from the ear in the previous 90 days · History of sudden or rapidly progressive hearing loss in one or both ears within the previous 90 days · Acute or chronic dizziness · Audiometric air-bone gap equal to or greater than 15 dB at 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2000 Hz · Visible evidence of significant cerumen accumulation or a foreign body in the ear canal · Pain or discomfort in the ear
12

· Abnormal appearance of the eardrum and ear canal such as: o Inflammation of the external auditory canal o Perforated eardrum o Other abnormalities which the HCP believes are of medical concern
The HCP may decide that referral is not appropriate or in the best interests of the patient when the following applies:
· When there is sufficient evidence that the condition has been fully investigated by a medical specialist and any possible treatment has been provided.
· The condition has not worsened or changed significantly since the previous investigation and/or treatment
· If the patient has given their informed and competent decision not to accept advice to seek a medical opinion, it is permissible to proceed to recommend appropriate hearing aid systems subject to the following considerations: o The recommendation will not have any adverse effects on the patient’s health or general wellbeing o The records confirm that all necessary considerations about the patient’s best interests have been made. If legally required, the patient has signed a disclaimer to confirm that the referral advice has not been accepted and that it is an informed decision.

hearing aids have the potential to expose patients to higher levels of sound exposure, which might result in threshold shifts in the frequency range affected by acoustic trauma.
Clinical benefit: The benefit for the patient is that the fitting software provides the capability to set the hearing aid setting to individual needs and to store them to the hearing aid. The benefit for the hearing care professional is related to patient management.
Risks: In the case of this fitting software, these risks manifest themselves through the hearing aids it is intended to program. That is, the fitting software itself cannot directly harm either the user (HCP) or the wearer of the hearing aids but its use (or misuse) can result in:
· wrongly programmed hearing aids being dispensed to patients, and/or · harmfully loud sounds being delivered via hearing aids to patients during fitting sessions /
demonstration sessions. These risks are extremely low, but both HCPs and wearers of hearing aids should be aware of them, nonetheless. Fitting Software informs about restrictions in the following cases:
MPO MPO exceeds 132 dB.
Fitting Session · Before a measurement/testing is performed. · The acoustic parameters are selected. · Before test signals are produced.
Tinnitus · The output level of the Tinnitus Masker is above 80 dB(A). · The tinnitus balance is selected for a patient below age of 18.
