What you need to know about hearing aid fitting

　　The sooner a hearing aid is fitted, the better

　　From the perspective of audiology, once there is irreversible hearing loss, hearing AIDS should be timely matched, which can delay the speed of hearing loss and the better the effect of wearing hearing AIDS.

　　Many old people and their families do not have this consciousness, tend to be wait to hear loss seriously affect the life to go with hearing AIDS, then not only the residual hearing is running out, and the old man because of the long-term lack of enough words sound stimulus, the brain has "not know" those who hear the words for a long time, there is a lot of words have been don't understand, we call words resolution decreased. At this time with hearing AIDS, of course, did not hear the degree of light with good results. For infants, children, more can not delay, otherwise it will affect their speech system, and even become mute, resulting in lifelong negative effects.

　　Hearing aid matching needs to be personally matched

　　hearing aid cannot buy casually, want oneself personally check match like glasses. Choosing a hearing aid requires a detailed hearing test. You also need to tell the therapist about your medical history and what kind of listening environment you are in. In the process of trying on hearing AIDS, will simulate a variety of different listening scenarios to let you personally feel the effect, according to your listening experience to adjust the parameters, until listening more comfortable. This debugging out of the hearing aid effect is better, more conducive to the protection of hearing.

　　Don't just install one if necessary

　　Many elderly friends have hearing loss in both ears, but in order to save money, they only choose to wear a hearing aid in one ear. Because the other ear does not receive enough sound stimulation for a long time, it is easy to lose the ability to distinguish sound and the speed of hearing decline is faster.

　　Generally speaking, matching hearing AIDS with both ears can help reduce headshadow effect, reduce ear blocking effect, reduce noise effect is better, increase comfort and sound clarity, strengthen the sense of sound direction, improve language resolution, help the wearer better understand the content of speech, at the same time, but also more effectively inhibit tinnitus phenomenon. On the whole, it is more beneficial to protect residual hearing and central brain function.

　　Hearing AIDS are better used with accessories

　　Hearing AIDS can also choose bluetooth directly connected hearing AIDS to achieve better listening results. It can connect TV, mobile phone, computer, Ipad, etc. Up to two Bluetooth devices can be connected at the same time to transmit sound directly to the hearing aid, reducing secondary distortion of sound, and listening more clearly.

　　If you want to attend lectures, meetings, open classes and other long-distance meetings, you can use a Bluetooth wireless microphone, which can be heard clearly within a distance of 25-30 meters without obstacles.

　　Hearing AIDS do not work best immediately

　　There will be an adaptation period of 1 to 3 months for the first time wearing a hearing aid. During the adaptation period, the time of wearing a hearing aid every day should be from short to long, and the wearing environment should be from quiet to noisy, so as to give the brain enough time to adapt to different sounds in stages. Usually the lighter the hearing loss, the shorter the hearing loss time, the shorter the adaptation period of wearing hearing AIDS, the better the effect.

　　If hearing loss for a long time with hearing AIDS, there may be a lot of words can not be understood, so after wearing hearing AIDS, it will take a long time to adapt to it, and to carry out targeted speech training, in order to gradually make the effect of hearing AIDS better.

　　So we want to remind the hearing loss for many years before the hearing aid of the elderly, do not think you can step in place, do not feel the effect is not ideal at the beginning of the hearing aid put aside not to wear, only continue to adapt, continue to let the paramedic debugging parameters, will wear better.

　　Should you have your hearing tested regularly at any age

　　According to the World Health Organization, about a third of people over the age of 65 and 34 million children worldwide suffer from disabling hearing loss. Around 1.1 billion young people worldwide between the ages of 12 and 35 are at risk of hearing loss due to exposure to recreational noise and the use of personal audio devices. So, hearing loss is not a matter of age, any age is at risk.

　　So we should develop the habit of checking hearing every year, old friends or friends often in the noise environment, can be checked every six months.

　　Once hearing loss is found, timely intervention measures can be taken, and the "three early" principles of early detection, early intervention and early rehabilitation should be followed.
