This investigation examined whether speech intelligibility in noise can be improved using a new, binaural broadband hearing instrument system. Participants were 36 adults with symmetrical, sensorineural hearing loss (18 experienced hearing instrument users and 18 without prior experience). Participants were fit binaurally in a planned comparison, randomized crossover design study with binaural broadband hearing instruments and advanced digital hearing instruments. Following an adjustment period with each device, participants underwent two speech-in-noise tests: the QuickSIN and the Hearing in Noise Test (HINT). Results suggested significantly better performance on the QuickSIN and the HINT measures with the binaural broadband hearing instruments, when compared with the advanced digital hearing instruments and unaided, across and within all noise conditions.
本研究考察了使用一种新型双耳宽带听力仪器系统是否可以提高噪声环境下的言语可懂度。36名患有对称性感音神经性听力损失的成年人参与了研究（18名有使用听力仪器经验，18名无相关经验）。在一项有计划的对照、随机交叉设计研究中，参与者双耳佩戴双耳宽带听力仪器和先进数字听力仪器。在对每种设备进行一段调整期后，参与者接受了两项噪声环境下言语测试：QuickSIN和噪声中听力测试（HINT）。结果表明，与先进数字听力仪器及未佩戴助听器相比，在所有噪声条件下，使用双耳宽带听力仪器时，参与者在QuickSIN和HINT测试中的表现显著更好。
