This study aimed at obtaining normative data and evaluating validity on the Chinese version of International Outcome Inventory for Hearing Aids (IOI-HA). The collected data would be useful to evaluate the effectiveness of hearing aid fitting in Hong Kong Cantonese population. IOI-HA was administered on 32 Cantonese-speaking hearing aid users. The Chinese version of IOI-HA showed high internal c...
A person who experiences hearing loss that hinders the process of language information through hearing, whether wearing a aid or not aid. Whereas someone lacks is usually uses aid, rest their enough to allow for success hearing. Language development complex and something interesting study. The same goes deaf children. So with problems occur in children will also have an impact on how learn, the...
The effect of hearing aid experience (measured as years of hearing aid use and user insertion gain at octave frequencies from 250 Hz to 4000 Hz) on the selection of preferred insertion gain under six listening conditions and one vocalization condition was examined. Thirteen experienced hearing aid users selected their preferred insertion gain in each test condition using a modified simplex proc...
The efficacy of a digital hearing aid with a directional microphone was examined in a school-aged population. Twenty children (9 with a mild-to-moderately-severe hearing loss and 11 with a moderate-to-severe hearing loss) between 7 1/2 and 13 2/3 years of age wore the study hearing aids binaurally for 30 days prior to the evaluation. The testing protocol included speech recognition tests using ...
BACKGROUND Communication is an important aspect of everyday life especially for elderly people. Hearing loss can impair the exchange of information and therefore reduces the quality of life. The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality of life in elderly people who are hard of hearing after wearing a hearing aid. METHODS Hearing-impaired old people who referred to the rehabilitati...
Introduction For many reasons, it is important for audiologists and consumers to document improvement and benefit from amplification device at various stages of uses of amplification device. Professional are also interested to see the impact of amplification device on the consumer's auditory performance at different stages i.e. immediately after fitting and over several months of use. Objectiv...
This brief report describes the changes in hearing-aid performance and benefit in 9 elderly hearing-aid wearers over a 3-year period following the hearing-aid fitting. Objective measures of hearing-aid performance included three measures of speech recognition: (a) the Nonsense Syllable Test (NST) presented at 65 dB SPL and a +8 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), (b) the Connected Speech Test (CST)...
OBJECTIVE To understand hearing behaviors of adults seeking help for the first time through the application of two models of health behavior change: the transtheoretical model and the health belief model. DESIGN The relationships between attitudes and beliefs were examined relative to hearing-aid uptake and outcomes six months later. STUDY SAMPLE One hundred and sixty adults completed the U...
Fitting hearing aids to infants requires special consideration at each stage of the process. In the assessment stage, electrophysiological hearing threshold estimates must be adjusted appropriately so that an accurate hearing aid fitting can occur. Ear canal acoustics are also important to consider during the assessment stage of the hearing aid fitting process for infants. A strategy for measur...
With regard to the practice of hearing aid fittings, presently there is no unanimous concurrence among audiologists and speech-language pathologists as to what constitutes a successful hearing aid fitting. Many audiologists’ beliefs on successful fittings often lie with only one of the following levels namely impairment level, activity level, participation level, satisfaction level, health rela...
