# QuickSIN Testing: What Is a QuickSIN in Audiometry?

> A QuickSIN test is a speech-in-noise test that measures a patient’s ability to hear in noise, which cannot be predicted from other standard audiometric tests.

# What is **Quick-SIN?**

The QuickSIN is a [speech-in-noise](https://www.auditdata.com/audiology-solutions/measure/hearing-assessment/speech-in-noise-sin/ "Speech-in-Noise (SIN)") test that quickly and easily measures the ability to hear in noise. Speech in noise cannot be reliably predicted from the pure tone audiogram or other standard audiometric tests. The QuickSIN test should be used on all adult patients as part of the audiometric test battery.

Frequently-Asked-Questions

**Frequently Asked Questions**

## Why use Quick-SIN?

Difficulty with hearing in background noise is a common complaint among hearing aid users. Therefore, the measurement of SNR loss (signal-to-noise ratio loss) is important because a person's ability to understand speech in noise cannot be reliably predicted from the pure tone audiogram.

## How to perform Quick-SIN?

A list of six sentences with five keywords per sentence is presented in four-talker babble noise. The sentences are presented at pre-recorded signal-to-noise ratios which decrease in 5-dB steps from 25 (very easy) to 0 (extremely difficult). The SNRs used are: 25, 20, 15, 10, 5 and 0, encompassing normal to severely impaired performance in noise.
