Description

ACT™ is an advanced diagnostic assessment tool designed to measure a person’s ability to understand speech in noise. It is widely used in audiology clinics to provide an objective and quick evaluation of how well a patient can detect speech cues under challenging listening environments.

Developed for clinical efficiency and accuracy, ACT™ helps audiologists identify the degree of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) loss in a patient’s hearing. This information is essential for understanding real-world communication difficulties, especially in noisy environments such as restaurants, streets, or group conversations.

The test uses adaptive technology to determine the smallest contrast level at which speech becomes intelligible to the listener. This allows for a more precise understanding of functional hearing ability beyond standard pure-tone audiometry.

Key Features of ACT™:

• Quick and easy speech-in-noise assessment
• Measures signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) loss
• Provides frequency-specific insights into hearing performance
• Helps in personalized hearing aid fitting and fine-tuning
• Improves understanding of real-world hearing challenges
• Suitable for both adults and hearing care professionals
