[The evaluation for hearing aids fitting by using TR60 (a new system of hearing aids fitting)].
We have studied 131 patients (over 12 y/o) for hearing aids evaluation by the Noise Impulse Hearing Test using the fitting system TR 60 and have compared the test results with the subjective estimation of the patients wearing hearing aids. The judgement for selection of hearing aids by TR 60 is made by measuring most comfortable level (MCL) on the condition of wearing hearing aids, using narrow...

متن کاملEvaluation method for hearing aid fitting under reverberation: comparison between monaural and binaural hearing aids.
Some hearing-impaired persons with hearing aids complain of listening difficulty under reverberation. No method, however, is currently available for hearing aid fitting that permits evaluation of hearing difficulty caused by reverberations. In this study, we produced speech materials with a reverberation time of 2.02 s that mimicked a reverberant environment (a classroom). Speech materials with...
متن کاملGuidelines for fitting multiple memory hearing aids.
Fitting guidelines to determine candidacy for multiple memory hearing aids and the choice of amplification for each memory are devised by reviewing studies on the selection of amplification for different listening conditions. The guideline for determining candidacy comprises three factors: (1) difficulty hearing in acoustically diverse conditions, (2) an average high-frequency hearing loss grea...
متن کاملFitting hearing aids in children with severe hearing loss.
Because of limited initial data about the hearing loss of children and the difficulties in getting an optimal prescription, every fitting has to incorporate a procedure verifying or validating the final fitting. Fitting hearing aids should be focused on optimal speech recognition, even in children with very severe or profound hearing loss. When the MTS test is used, it is possible to optimize t...
