ACT™ Speech-in-Noise Diagnostic Test

ACT™ is an advanced diagnostic tool developed to evaluate an individual’s ability to understand speech in noisy environments. It is widely used in audiology clinics to quickly and objectively assess how well a patient can recognize speech signals when background noise is present.

Designed for clinical accuracy and efficiency, ACT™ helps audiologists determine a patient’s Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) loss. This measurement is crucial for understanding real-life hearing difficulties, particularly in challenging listening situations such as crowded places, traffic, or group conversations.

Using adaptive testing technology, ACT™ identifies the minimum speech-to-noise contrast required for clear speech perception. This provides a more functional assessment of hearing ability than traditional pure-tone audiometry alone.

Key Features of ACT™:

  • Fast and efficient speech-in-noise testing
  • Accurate measurement of SNR loss
  • Detailed insight into real-world hearing performance
  • Supports precise hearing aid fitting and adjustment
  • Enhances understanding of everyday listening challenges
  • Suitable for both clinical professionals and adult patients
