Effect of Auditory Input on Sensory Organization and Fall Risk in Young Adults With Hearing Aids
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.The aim of this study was to document postural control, sensory organization, and fall risk parameters of auditory input using computerized post urography in bilaterally hearing‐aided young adults. It was observed that auditory input had a positive contribution to postural control and fall risk in young adult hearing aid users.
