1.  What is the Adaptation Manager in the HearSuite fitting software?
  1. A feature that helps patients acclimatize to amplification over time.
  2. A feature that helps patients adapt to wireless technology
  3. A feature that helps patients acclimatize to frequency lowering over time.
  4. A feature that helps patient adapt to amplification by providing less gain over time
2.  What is the purpose of the adaptation manager feature?
  1. Provides Member comfort and increases first fit acceptance
  2. Provides a more structured method for clinicians to introduce decreasing levels of amplification to the client relative to an end target.
  3. Ensures the Member is receiving appropriate amplification to meet their needs based on the QuickSin.
  4. To Help Member learn about adaptors
3.  If a new hearing aid user reports that the aids are mildly too loud after REM, what Adaptation level would be the best choice?
  1. Start at 80% and end at 100%
  2. Start at 90% and end at 100%
  3. Start at 100%
  4. Start at 80% and end at 90%
4.  When a Member has sound tolerance issues and needs the Automatic gain adaptation feature enabled and set to 80% or 90% how is the gain affected?
  1. Gain is increased for all frequencies
  2. Gain does not change
  3. Gain decreases for higher frequencies
  4. None of the above
5.  What are the three available Adaptation levels?
  1. 70%, 80% and 90%
  2. 60%, 80% and 100%
  3. 80%, 90% and 100%
  4. None of the above
6.  If you need to change the Adaptation Manager for a Member, which navigation pane would you open?
  1. Client Data
  2. Instrument Acoustics
  3. Feature Selection
  4. Fit Instrument
7.  Based on Member report of overall sensitivity to the prescribed gain; adaptation manager is set to 80%, end goal of 100%, and step duration of 1 month. Given this information how long will it take the member to reach 100% adaptation if they average 10 hours of use per day?
  1. 60 days
  2. 1 month
  3. 45 days
  4. 30 days
8.  A Member has a moderately severe to severe high frequency SNHL, history of hyperacusis and reduced UCLs. Which of the following would be the best choice for the start and end settings within the Adaptation Manager?
  1. Start at 80% and end at 90%
  2. Start at 90% and end at 100%
  3. Start at 80% and end at 100%
  4. Start at 100%
9.  What is the default setting of the Adaptation Manager?
  1. 100%
  2. 80%
  3. 60%
  4. 70%
10.  Which of these statements best describes a Member benefit of the Adaptation Manager?
  1. Over a period of days, weeks, or months, the hearing aid increases the gain until it reaches the wearer’s prescribed frequency/gain target for the selected fitting formula.
  2. Increases first fit acceptance by providing comfort and decreased audibility.
  3. Increases the need for follow-up visits for mild gain increases.
  4. Makes the Member happy that they purchased new hearing aids
