Optimization tool for auditory devices

An optimization system for testing a patient's hearing comprising:

• a controller;
• an ear piece in audible communication with the controller;
• a memory in communication with the controller and including instructions that, when executed by the controller, cause the controller to:
• provide a series of tones to the ear piece;
• receive feedback from the patient between each tone provided, wherein each feedback indicates that the respective tone was detected in the ear piece or that the respective tone was not detected;
• generate a data point on an audiogram after receiving each feedback, wherein each data point is, based on the respective feedback;
• after each data point is generated, compute a statistical distribution based on the generated data points;
• identify an area of the audiogram, most in, need of additional data based on the statistical distribution;
• and
• select a subsequent tone to provide in the series of tones, wherein each subsequent tone provided in the series of tones is a tone represented in the area of the audiogram most in need of additional data at the time, of selection.
