Understanding Real Ear Measurements (REM): Precision in Hearing Aid Fitting

Real Ear Measurements (REM) are a critical component in the process of fitting hearing aids. This technique involves measuring the actual sound levels inside the ear canal when a hearing aid is worn, ensuring that the device is perfectly calibrated to the user’s unique ear acoustics. Unlike standard fitting procedures that rely solely on manufacturer settings, REM allows for a truly personalised and accurate adjustment, enhancing the overall hearing experience and user satisfaction.

Why Real Ear Measurements Are Essential for Optimal Hearing Aid Performance

Hearing aids are powerful tools for improving hearing quality, but their effectiveness depends significantly on how well they are fitted. REM provides the precise data needed to adjust the hearing aid’s output, ensuring that the user hears sounds as naturally and comfortably as possible. By tailoring the device to the unique characteristics of your ear, REM helps prevent issues such as sound distortion or under-amplification.

How Real Ear Measurements Work

During a REM session at AudioCare, a small probe microphone is placed into the ear canal alongside the hearing aid. This allows our audiologists to measure how the device amplifies sound directly in your ear. By playing test sounds and analysing the results, we make fine-tuned adjustments to ensure that the hearing aid’s output matches the prescribed amplification for your specific hearing loss.

The Impact of Real Ear Measurements on Daily Life

Accurate REM adjustments can make all the difference in how you experience the world. Poorly fitted hearing aids can lead to problems such as:

Struggling to hear conversations in noisy environments.
Uncomfortable or overly loud sounds.
Reduced overall sound quality.

With REM, these issues are addressed proactively, allowing you to enjoy a seamless, comfortable hearing experience that adapts perfectly to your lifestyle.

Trust our expertise and dedication to tailor your hearing aids with precision, ensuring comfort and clarity in every sound.

Whether you’re exploring our bespoke services, our approach, or how we can elevate your hearing experience, here are answers to the questions we’re asked most often.

REM ensures that hearing aids are accurately fitted by measuring the actual sound levels in your ear canal, tailoring the device to your specific hearing needs.

No, the test is non-invasive and painless. You may feel a slight sensation as the probe is placed, but it is quick and not uncomfortable.
