Pay attention to the deafness of the elderly

Most of the hearing problems of many old friends are “drag out”. Under normal circumstances, people’s hearing loss is periodic. Except for sudden deafness patients, most of the hearing is gradually decreased. However, most hearing impaired patients will not pay much attention to hearing loss in the early stage. The first feeling of most people: it’s just that some of them can’t hear clearly, but they can still hear. It’s not particularly serious. Maybe they will be fine in a while.

However, it’s really too late to think of treatment when I can’t hear clearly.

The earlier you intervene, the more agile you are.

The researchers found that for every 10 decibels of hearing loss, cognitive ability may “premature aging” for four years. Therefore, even if the result of hearing test is only slight hearing loss, hearing intervention should be carried out in time in order to retain the cognitive function of brain to the maximum extent. Hearing aids and other interventions can help people with hearing impairment hear the “lost” sound signal and maintain the hearing sensitivity of the brain.

The earlier you intervene, the happier your life will be.

A foreign survey found that once hearing loss occurs, if it is not intervened in time, it will directly affect the quality of life of the elderly weak hearing people, making them depressed, even social isolation. For every 10 decibels of hearing loss, the probability of social isolation will increase by about 52%.

According to statistics, the mortality rate of social isolation is almost the same as that of smoking, drinking and other factors. If we can intervene in time when we find hearing problems, we can avoid social isolation and maintain or improve the quality of life of the old people with hearing impairment. Old people with hearing impairment will continue to enjoy all the beautiful sounds in the world, such as children’s laughter, birds’ calls, the sound of waves lapping on the beach

The earlier the intervention, the higher the sense of security.

The sense of security here refers to the sense of certainty and controllability of the weak listeners for their environment. In recent years, the directional technology of hearing aids has been further improved. Today’s directional technology can not only let the hearing impaired hear the sound signal in front, but also let the hearing impaired hear the sound from the side and the rear. For example, when driving, whether the hearing impaired person is in the driver’s seat, the passenger’s seat or the back seat, he can hear the sound from all directions – both safe driving and peaceful conversation.

In addition to the sense of sound source determination, directional technology also adds adjustable parameters, so that people with hearing impairment can choose their own listening direction, increase their sense of control in different environments, and further improve their sense of security.

The earlier the intervention, the less camouflage.

Today’s hearing aids can let people with hearing impairment hear the original sound, and help them live and work better. When hearing impairment occurs, the most frustrating situation for people with hearing loss is that they are unable to integrate into other people’s conversations. For example, some people share jokes, others have happy smiles on their faces, while people with hearing impairment can only follow them with fake smiles. The latest hearing aid technology can “decipher” more speech details, such as the consonant “B s f t Z”, improve the speech intelligibility of hearing impaired people, help them to remove their disguises and talk easily.

The earlier the intervention, the more social activities.

People usually think that hearing loss is an inevitable phenomenon for the elderly. However, a series of life problems caused by hearing loss are rarely concerned. The same hearing loss occurs in different old people, which may lead to different levels of life problems. For example, it is also mild hearing loss. An elderly person with frequent social activities must have more problems than an elderly person with relatively leisurely life.

Through the observation and investigation of 848 old people for two years, the researchers found that: the probability that the old people with hearing impairment choose to go out in the “neighborhood of the community” is about twice that of the old people with normal hearing; the number of daily activities of the old people with hearing impairment is less than that of the old people with normal hearing.

Today’s hearing aids can help the hearing impaired to regain their social life. Because today’s hearing aid is like a micro robot, which can automatically detect the surrounding environment and provide the best speech intelligibility after being “trained” by the hearing impaired.
