Speech Audiometry

Speech Audiometry assesses a patient's ability to hear and understand speech in quiet conditions. Words or sentences are played at different volumes, and the patient repeats what they hear. It helps determine the clarity of speech perception and the level of hearing difficulty. This test complements pure tone audiometry. Results include speech reception threshold and word recognition scores. It is crucial for evaluating real-world communication ability and hearing aid outcomes.
