FastFacts 16.2: Insertion gain in SPL
Insertion gain is the difference between aided and unaided ear canal SPL (REIG =
REAG - REUG). It inherently assumes a sound-field audiogram. For non-linear
hearing aids, REIG is stimulus-dependent and the dependency is specific to each
hearing aid. Insertion gain fitting methods ignore these facts. Speechmap is
recommended for fitting all non-linear hearing instruments.
Refer to 10: Real-Ear Measurement Setup and 11: REM Screen Setup for
terminology and information on preparing the system for use and for proper
positioning of the client and the probe tube.
This section covers the following topics:
16.2: Insertion gain in SPL 16.6: REAR measurement procedure
16.3: Insertion gain in HL 16.7:SII calculation in Insertion gain
16.4: Audiometric data entry
16.5: REUR measurement procedure
See 10: Real-Ear Measurement Setup and 11: REM Screen Setup
