Abstract

A new, nonelectronic hearing aid was studied in 112 patients with mild sloping sensorineural hearing loss. The device, worn all in the ear and made of clear plastic, produced a mean functional gain of 9.6 dB at 1500 Hz, 12.4 dB at 1750 Hz, and 9.1 dB at 2000 Hz, with lesser gains at adjacent frequencies between 1000 and 2500 Hz. Speech discrimination in quiet and in noise was improved. Patient acceptance of the device (in a group of 884 patients) was 76%. The device appears to be useful in the treatment of mild hearing loss.

摘要

一种新型的非电子助听器在112例轻度斜坡型感音神经性听力损失患者中进行了研究。该装置全耳佩戴，由透明塑料制成，在1500Hz时平均功能增益为9.6dB，在1750Hz时为12.4dB，在2000Hz时为9.1dB，在1000至2500Hz之间的相邻频率处增益较小。安静和噪声环境下的言语辨别能力均得到改善。该装置在884例患者中的接受率为76%。该装置似乎对轻度听力损失的治疗有用。
