TOP 10 BENEFITS OF WEARING BINAURAL HEARING AIDS

图片
  Recently, many hearing impaired people have been asking us about the benefits of binaural  hearing aids .  Here’s a look at the top 10 benefits of binaural hearing aids with Spieth.   1. Improve sound source localization ability The human ear has a very strong ability to localize sound sources. However, it is a prerequisite that both ears must have equal hearing thresholds. The transmission of sound through the air is subject to changes in energy and velocity, and if there is a hearing loss and an asymmetry in thresholds, it is impossible to determine the direction of the sound source. Therefore, the binaural option hearing aids can better improve the ability to locate the sound source.     2. Improve noise reduction and speech understanding The auricle of the human ear has sound collection and noise reduction functions. For a hearing impaired patient, it is very important to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. Wearing them in both ears means that both auricles have both sound collect

How do you know your hearing loss?

Hearing loss is the most widespread sensory organ disease in the world, and its negative impact is at the top of the global burden of disease (GBD) ranking, so ear and hearing care has become a global public health concern.  WHO is the international organization responsible for global health, and the WHO has established the following hearing loss levels, this standard are applicable to adults, please check the details as follow.   1.  Normal Hearing, -10~20dB, people can hear very well in quite and noise environment   2.  Mild Hearing loss, 20~40dB, people can hear well in quite environment, but some time may can’t hear very well in the noise environment.   3.  Moderate Hearing Loss, 40~55dB, people may can’t hear very clear in the quite environment, need the speaker speak louder; and in the noise environment people can’t hear well, need speak louder to raise the volume.   4.  Moderately Severe Hearing Loss, 55~70dB, can’t hear well in normal volume when it is in the quite environment;

Preserving Your Hearing: Essential Tips for Auditory Health

hearing Loss   is a widespread issue that can greatly affect communication and overall well-being. It is essential to take proactive measures to protect our   hearing   and maintain good   auditory health . This article provides valuable tips and strategies for safeguarding our ears from noise-induced hearing loss. Limit Exposure to Loud Noises: One of the most effective ways to prevent hearing loss is by minimizing exposure to loud sounds. Encourage individuals to avoid or reduce their time in noisy environments, such as attending excessively loud concerts or sporting events. In situations where exposure to loud noises is unavoidable, it is crucial to use  earplugs  or earmuffs to reduce the intensity of sound and protect the delicate structures of the inner ear. Utilize Volume-Limiting Devices: With the prevalence of personal audio devices like smartphones and MP3 players, it is important to promote the use of devices with volume-limiting features. These features restrict the maximum

Binaural hearing brings you a better hearing experience

hearing   impairment in one ear for an extended period may lead to a gradual increase in the   hearing Loss   of the weaker ear and can impede the development of the hearing pathway. In a similar vein, hearing deprivation in one ear may compromise the ability to locate sounds accurately. When an individual cannot judge the direction of a sound source, it can lead to potentially hazardous situations. Additionally, hearing difficulties are often exacerbated in noisy environments, and individuals may struggle to discern critical information. For instance, even in quiet settings, it may be possible to miss essential sound cues. Asymmetric hearing loss during childhood can lead to developmental barriers to language acquisition, intellectual hurdles, and difficulties in communication, highlighting the importance of early intervention. Binaural hearing offers several benefits, such as eliminating hearing deprivation in the weaker ear. For children, early intervention is crucial for developing

Revolutionizing Hearing Aids: The Latest Advancements in High-Tech Chips

  hearing Loss  afflicts millions of people around the globe, significantly impacting their ability to communicate and engage with the world. Fortunately,  hearing Aids  have been a crucial solution to address this challenge, and the development of advanced  hearing aid chip  technology has revolutionized the industry. In this article, we will explore the latest advancements in  hearing  aid chip technology, highlighting their key features, benefits, and the positive impact they have on individuals with hearing loss. Miniaturization and Power Efficiency: One noteworthy advancement in hearing aid chip technology is the remarkable miniaturization of chips. Manufacturers have successfully reduced the chips’ size while maintaining or improving their performance. This miniaturization allows for smaller, more discreet  hearing Aids , offering enhanced comfort and aesthetics for users. Additionally, these smaller chips have led to significant improvements in power efficiency, extending batter

“CIC” Hearing Aids: Unlocking a World of Sound and Unmatched Discretion

  Introduction: hearing Loss  is a common health issue for middle-aged and elderly people, but many people are worried about  hearing  Aids that need to be worn on the ears. This inspired a new type of hearing aid –  the “CIC” completely-in-canal hearing aid.  This article will explore the features, applicability and proper use of “CIC”  hearing Aids . Features of “CIC” hearing aids: The most significant feature of  cic hearing Aids  is their anonymity. Because they are designed to be placed in the ear canal, no traditional hearing aid accessory, such as ear muffs or headbands, is required, and using the CIC hearing aid in public will not attract attention. In addition, the CIC device is very small, often only the size of the first ring of the auricle, and is almost invisible. Applicability of “CIC” hearing aids: Since “CIC” hearing aids are only suitable for mild to moderate sensorineural hearing loss, considering the specific types of hearing loss, the applicability can be considered

Hearing Aid Types Part 2

In-the-canal (ITC) and in-the-ear (ITE) digital aids Who it's for:  People with mild to some severe hearing loss. Pros:  Both have working parts in the earmould, or a small compartment clipped to it, so the whole aid fits in the ear. ITC aids are less visible than ITEs, but neither has parts behind the ear. Cons:  Tend to need repairing more often than behind-the-ear aids. Completely-in-the-canal (CIC) or invisible hearing aids Who it's for:  People with mild to moderate hearing loss. Pros:  Smallest type of hearing aid. Almost invisible as working parts are in the earmould; fits further into the ear canal than ITE/ITC aids. Cons:  Unlikely to be suitable if you have frequent ear infections. Ear might feel plugged up unless it's vented. Small tube is particularly vulnerable to becoming plugged with sweat and wax, which may cause temporary malfunction. Can be tricky to use if you can’t manage small switches or buttons. How hidden it is will depend on the shape of your ear.
