Clinical Trial Summary

This investigation will compare hearing aid fitting methods between self-fitting and clinician fitting approaches by using a standardized questionnaire to evaluate subjective hearing aid benefit.


Clinical Trial Description

Participants will be fit with hearing aids using two different fitting methods (fitting A and fitting B). The order of the fitting will be randomized such that half of the participants will start out with fitting A and half of the participants will start out with fitting B. All participants will undergo baseline speech testing and answer a questionnaire about their experiences in daily life without hearing aids. All participants will use devices for a period of 1-2 weeks in their daily lives. After this first home trial, participants will return to the clinic where they will answer questionnaires regarding their experience with the devices. They will also perform aided speech testing. They will then be given devices with the second fitting method and will wear devices for a period of 1-2 weeks in their daily lives. Following the second home trial, all participants will return to the clinic to answer the same questionnaire that was given after home trial #1, and complete aided speech testing. The results for each of the two fitting methods will be analyzed. ;
