Individually-guided Hearing Aid Fitting

Status Enrolling by invitation

Clinical Trial Summary

This translational project aims to optimize the fitting of hearing aids by development and clinical validation of a toolset that guides signal processing choice based on the individual auditory and cognitive abilities of the patient.

Clinical Trial Description

The clinical trial portion of the project will validate clinical use of the toolset by evaluating a population of patients fit using current standard of care. Patient characteristics, such as audiological profile and cognition, will be collected. Their hearing aid settings will then be evaluated to determine if they meet toolset guidelines for signal processing based on their patient characteristics (auditory and cognition). Data regarding subjective and objective hearing aid outcomes will also be collected. It is hypothesized that hearing aid fittings that meet the standards of the proposed clinical toolset will result in better patient outcomes (objective and subjective) and fewer post-fitting visits. ;
