New hearing aids need to be adapted

The upgrading of hearing aids is very normal. It may be that the machine can not meet the needs due to hearing loss, or it may want more functions. Although many hearing impaired friends know that the first use of hearing aids requires a period of adaptation. So, do we need to adapt to the new hearing aids?

The answer is needed.

Whether it is the first time to wear hearing aids, or it has been used for many years, as long as a new hearing aid is replaced, it needs to carry out a period of adaptive training. Why is that?

1. Analog to digital needs to be used

If you have ever used an analog machine and want to replace a patient with a < a href = "http://www.sqhearing.com/tlkp/450. HTML" target = "_blank" > digital machine < / a >, you will find it difficult to adapt in the early stage of use.

It is a common experience for matching engineers to meet customers who have been using analog machines for more than ten years and just changed into digital hearing aids. However, they feel that the sound quality is not as good as before, the volume is not as good as before, and they are not comfortable with old machines.

In fact, the technology of the digital hearing aid is much more advanced than that of the analog machine, the sound quality is far better than that of the analog machine, and it is more in line with the comfort of the human ear. However, customers have been used to the old hearing aid for a long time, and they have been used to the simple sound amplification function of the analog machine, and they are not used to it after replacing the digital hearing aid.

For example, the user used the old box linear amplification machine before, and then replaced the digital hearing device, which will take a while to adapt.

2. The same brand should be adapted again

Even for hearing aids of the same brand and model, the acoustic characteristics of products produced in different batches will be slightly different, so the sound quality of new hearing aids and old hearing aids will be different, so it is necessary to adapt to the sound quality characteristics of new hearing aids.

Of course, the closer the technical characteristics of the new hearing aid and the old hearing aid are, the shorter the adaptation period is.

3. Higher requirements with experience

If you use the hearing aid for the first time, when you feel the clear listening effect, you will have the feeling of opening the door of the new world; when you change the hearing aid, because you have the experience of wearing it for the first time, you will not have the original sense of surprise.

In addition, patients have rich experience in wearing hearing aids when they change the new hearing aids. The requirements for new hearing aids are relatively high. It is inevitable that there will be a gap in expectations, but the effect of new hearing aids will not be obvious.

For the deaf

When hearing impaired patients choose new hearing aids, they should focus on their own hearing characteristics and the demand for effect.

As long as the use effect of hearing aids is suitable for their own needs, it does not have to be limited to the brand and model, and it does not have to be entangled in the brand differences between the new and old hearing aids. The hearing aids with two ears can also be different brands of hearing aids.

For the match maker

On the one hand, we should communicate with patients so that patients and their families can understand the adaptation period of new hearing aids. On the other hand, from the professional point of view, we carefully analyze the hearing characteristics of patients and the needs of sound in various living and learning environments.

While mastering the sound quality characteristics and effects of the old hearing aids for patients, following the principle of step-by-step, through various test indicators, from the perspective of debugging, on the one hand, try to improve the effect of the new hearing aids, surpass the old hearing aids, and gradually transition to the ideal listening effect.
