What kind of hearing aid is a “good” hearing aid

When we have hearing loss, we will choose to buy hearing aids. When we buy hearing aids, we all want to buy hearing aids with good effects. What kind of hearing aids are good hearing aids?

First of all, this “good” hearing aid is not determined by the manufacturer, nor by us, but by you, the hearing loss patients themselves. Each person’s hearing loss situation is different, the demand for hearing aids is different, the surrounding environment is different, and the hearing aid effect after wearing is different. Therefore, we have different opinions on this The concept of “good” is different.

If you are a patient with mild hearing loss and you are wearing a high-end 4W Yuan machine, what do you think of the effect? Is this hearing aid a “good” hearing aid for you?

You may think this hearing aid is so expensive, and the effect must be good, but in fact, on the contrary, first of all, as a patient with mild hearing loss, you do not need it at all. Many functions on the hearing aid are not available to you at all. Second, the communication of patients with mild hearing loss in a quiet environment is not a problem, and there will be no hearing loss , so this hearing aid is completely redundant.

Therefore, this is one of the misunderstandings of many people. The more expensive the hearing aid is, the better its effect is. This is a very wrong view.

How to judge whether a hearing aid belongs to “good” hearing aid?

You can judge whether the hearing aid you buy is good through the following points.

The first point: it can make the hearing loss patients hear the voice that can not be heard without hearing aid (speech sound, environment sound).

Second point: it can enable our hearing impaired patients to recover or maintain the existing speech recognition ability, that is, to be able to hear clearly in all kinds of environments.

Third point: it can be heard clearly in noisy environment, which is what I said above.

Fourth point: maintain a certain sound intensity, but not reach the discomfort threshold. Explain the discomfort threshold a little bit. Everyone has a threshold for the intensity of sound. When you exceed this threshold, you will feel noisy and uncomfortable. However, everyone’s threshold is different, so don’t worry too much about why you are different from others.

If you want to know whether you wear a hearing aid or not, you can judge your hearing aid according to the above points. Therefore, it is you who decide whether a hearing aid is good or not.
