LACE Pro
Understanding speech in a crowded room or keeping up with fast-paced conversations requires more than just making sounds louder. While hearing aids bring sound to your ears, your brain does the heavy work of interpreting those sounds into clear words and sounds, keeping you connected and safe in the world around you.
Audiology Associates of DFW provides LACE Pro to train your brain to listen more effectively, helping you reconnect with the conversations that matter most to you.
LACE Pro is an advanced, AI-powered version of the long-running LACE (Listening and Communication Enhancement) program.
It’s specifically engineered to strengthen your auditory processing skills, enabling you to hear more clearly in challenging environments such as noisy restaurants or large social gatherings where multiple people are speaking at once.
Proven Results Backed by Research
LACE Pro relies on a foundation of rigorous scientific validation. The core auditory training platform is built on top of LACE, an intervention validated by 10 separate clinical trials.
80+ Separate Clinical Trials: More than 80 studies show thousands of documented improvements in patient listening outcomes.
80+ Peer-Reviewed Papers: Over 80 published papers and research studies discuss the clinical efficacy of LACE.
20 Years of Clinical Use: Over 1,000 clinics have prescribed LACE to tens of thousands of patients over two decades.
By utilizing this technology, you learn how to process speech with your brain rather than relying solely on your ears. Four independent studies demonstrated that using LACE reduced hearing aid return rates by as much as 90%, proving its power to enhance overall user satisfaction and performance.
Initial Assessment: Your journey begins with a baseline test to evaluate your current listening skills and identify specific areas for growth.
Targeted Training: You participate in daily, interactive exercises designed to simulate real-life listening obstacles and complex sound environments.
AI Personalization: The platform continuously adjusts exercise difficulty based on your individual progress and tolerance levels, ensuring an optimal learning pace.
Progress Tracking: Detailed progress reports allow you and your audiologist to track measurable improvements in your listening abilities over time.
Why might you struggle to understand speech in noise even when wearing properly fitted hearing aids?
Hearing aids amplify sound and restore missing frequencies, but they cannot replace the complex neural processing performed by your brain. If your brain has experienced a period of auditory deprivation due to hearing loss, it may struggle to filter out background noise or separate competing voices. LACE Pro addresses this neurological component of hearing by re-training your brain to focus on primary speech signals amidst complex acoustic environments.
