NIDCD/VA hearing aid clinical trial and follow-up: coupler and real-ear measurement.
A total of 190 individuals participated in a clinical visit during the Cooperative Studies Program (CSP) 418-A Long Term Follow-Up Study. Of this cohort, 158 participants were considered current hearing aid users, and 32 were non-hearing aid users. Of the current hearing aid users, 81 were still using their original 418 study devices, and 77 had acquired new hearing aids. Coupler and real ear m...
متن کاملDevelopment of an ear-level digital hearing aid and computer-assisted fitting procedure: an interim report.
Recent progress on the development of an ear-level digital hearing aid is described. The work includes development of a body-wearable digital hearing aid and a computer-based hearing evaluation system that exploits the flexibility afforded by digital signal processing. The prescriptive criteria and fitting procedure used with the digital hearing aid are described briefly. Design considerations ...
متن کاملChallenges in fitting a hearing aid to a severely collapsed ear canal and mixed hearing loss.
BACKGROUND Collapsed ear canals typically occur when an outside force, such as a headset for audiometric testing, is present. However, when a collapsed ear canal occurs without external pressure, this creates a challenge not only for performing audiometric testing but also for coupling a hearing aid to the ear canal. PURPOSE This case report highlights the challenges associated with fitting a...
متن کاملINTRODUCTION OF A NEW MODIFIED EYEBROW AND EAR RECONSTRUCTION PROCEDURE
This paper presents a new modified technique for ear and eyebrow reconstruction which was used to reconstruct facial injuries caused by burns, excision of malignant tumors, depressed traumatic scars and a low hairline defect around the auricular region.' Other facial reconstructions carried out by this procedure were also highly successful and without complications.
متن کاملHearing aid fitting in a digital age
This paper introduces SoundPoint, a new patientassisted fine tuning process that complements the traditional fitting process by placing control of sound quality in the hands of the patient. The SoundPoint system offers an elegant alternative to the method of ‘interview and adjust’ by providing any patient with the ability to navigate through a perceptual world of possible hearing aid adjustment...
