Horizontal Localization in Simulated Unilateral Hearing Loss
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The ability to localize a sound source is one of the binaural hearing benefits in a horizontal plane based on interaural time difference and interaural intensity difference. Unilateral or bilateral asymmetric hearing loss will affect binaural hearing and lead to sound locating errors. In this cross sectional analytical descriptive study, the localization error was inve...
متن کاملImplantable bone-conduction hearing device: practical considerations.
An implantable bone conduction hearing device can be of significant benefit to carefully selected patients with noncorrectable conductive hearing losses. However, for some patients the device has significant limitations. This paper presents several practical issues that need to be considered before a decision is made regarding implant surgery. It is recommended that, whenever possible, air cond...
متن کاملHearing and communication self-efficacy in adult hearing aid users and non-users with acquired sensorineural hearing loss
The purpose of this research study is to determine if differences in hearing and communication self-efficacy exist between adult hearing aid users and non-hearing aid users with acquired sensorineural hearing loss. No statistical differences were found between groups.
متن کاملUpdate on bone-anchored hearing aids in pediatric patients with profound unilateral sensorineural hearing loss.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of bone-anchored hearing aids (Bahas) in children with single-sided deafness. DESIGN Retrospective 3-year chart review. SETTING Arkansas Children's Hospital, Little Rock, pediatric hospital serving children from birth to 21 years of age.

متن کاملConductive hearing loss produces a reversible binaural hearing impairment.
Conductive hearing loss, produced by otitis media with effusion, is widespread in young children. However, little is known about its short- or long-term effects on hearing or the brain. To study the consequences of a conductive loss for the perception and processing of sounds, we plugged the left ear canal of ferrets for 7-15 months during either infancy or adulthood. Before or during plugging,...
