A hearing aid is an amplifying device that is custom-programmed to amplify any type of hearing loss. The hearing aid will generate a prescription based on an individual’s hearing loss and then look to provide optimal listening performance in a multitude of environments including background noise through its noise cancellation and directional microphones. What you are getting is an incredibly sophisticated device that is capable of filtering multiple noise sources to allow you to hear in any environment effectively.
I feel this is a good response to the question i do not feel it requires rediting!
Hearing aids are required when you begin to struggle with your hearing. If you are finding that you are turning the tv up, struggling to hear well in group situations or meetings, having to concentrate to hear what people are saying on the telephone or in one to one situations it may be the time to book in for a hearing consultation.
Hearing aids work in a very sophisticated way, they are more then just amplifying sound. The processing chips in the most advanced hearing aids are constantly monitoring the environment to provide you with the best speech in noise processing available. The hearing aids have significant noise reduction capacity to allow you to hear in even the most demanding listening situations.
We take your hearing test prescription and microphone measurements from your ear canal to fit the hearing aids to your prescription. A hearing aid looks to make speech audible and comfortable, providing clarity in words without making background noise too loud. This is ensured by suppressing background noise with directional microphones and aggressive noise reduction to give you the best possible quality of sound.
Hearing aids come in all sorts of different shapes and sizes. The two primary categories are receiver in the canal aids or in the canal aids which sit inside the cavity. Both types of devices are very discrete to the extent that most hearing aid users find that most people don’t notice they actually wear hearing aids.
A hearing aids most significant feature is its capacity to filter out background noise. Most hearing aid users find this to be the most difficult listening environment. Generally speaking the more expensive a hearing aid the more acute its ability to filter out unwanted background noise. Most manufacturers spend tremendous amount of research and development in fine tuning the capacity of a hearing aid to perform well in more demanding listening environments.
The cost of hearing aids can vary depending on the level of technology a patient wishes to acquire. This is dependent on the patient’s lifestyle and expectations from a hearing aid. The demands of an individual who just wants to hear the tv better over someone who still works, socializes, or attends meetings will be quite different.
We have found from experience that patients who wear hearing aids regularly are certainly less aware of the perceptual sound of their tinnitus. This is because the hearing aids provide an alternative sound for the brain to focus on thus alleviating the perception of a patient’s tinnitus.
Research and evidence-based peer reviews have suggested that the effort required to listen causes cognitive fatigue. This means the brain has to work harder than it should in engaging with the listening pathway in the auditory cortex. PET scans have shown other parts of the brain are thus having to engage in the listening process. There is a link between cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s, and dementia in patients with hearing loss.
Hearing aids generally whistle mainly due to two reasons. The patient may be presenting with occluding ear wax in the canal. There may be a programming issue with the aid not providing an adequate seal to contain the sound in the ear canal.
