Hearing-Aid Evaluation

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1956
Although the individual hearing aids from a single day's production may be of a uniform appearance, their amplifying capacities may very well differ. As physicians we are accustomed to trusting our co-workers, e. g., the pharmacists, expecting specific types of tablets to contain identical quantities of a certain drug.

Digital Hearing Aids

Archives of Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery, 2000
The proliferation of digital technology and continued miniaturization of sound-processing hardware has led to the development of a new generation of digital hearing aids. These aids offer complex sound-processing algorithms made possible through replacement of capacitors and resistors with computer software, and are purported to offer substantial ...

Implantable hearing aid

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2002
The present invention provides an apparatus and method for inserting a relatively compact hearing aid at least partially through the tympanic membrane using a simplified surgical procedure. The hearing aid includes a microphone, an amplifier, and at least one speaker that can be assembled into a single enclosure for insertion through the tympanic ...

Multi-programmable Hearing Aid

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1990
A basic problem in hearing-aid fitting is the difficulty in finding one setting optimal to all listening situations that might occur. The objective was to develop a behind-the-ear hearing-aid with a very flexible analog signal processor which is digitally controlled, and a memory with logic, so that the hearing-impaired person can select from eight ...

Hearing Aid Design

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2007
A hearing aid module is shaped for insertion into a tunnel made through the soft tissue that connects the retro-auricular space with the ear canal. The hearing aid module contains a speaker or auditory transducer, a battery or other power source powering the module, signal processing circuitry, a microphone, and a hollow tube which contains a steroid ...

Hearing Aids: I. Conventional Hearing Devices

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1996
State-of-the-art hearing aids incorporate advances in signal processing, miniaturization, and programmability. This technological progress has been accompanied by parallel enhancements in evaluating and fitting strategies. In addition, in the past several years, knowledge has increased about the influences of amplification on hearing ability and about ...

HEARING AID APPARATUS

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2012
There is described a hearing aid comprising input transducer means for converting input acoustic signals into electrical input signals, signal processor means and output transducer means. The signal processor means is operable to divide said electrical input signals into a plurality of frequency bands and to perform a contrast enhancement operation in ...

Bone-Anchored Hearing Aids versus Conventional Hearing Aids

2011
Hearing amplification technology has been evolving since the 19th century. Currently in most audiology departments, the mainstay of hearing rehabilitation is performed with conventional air and bone conduction aids. These are cost-effective, non-invasive hearing aids but are not without their drawbacks.
