AbstractIn the field of audiology, change is inevitable: changes in technologies with hearing devices, changes in consumer knowledge, and changes in consumer-driven solutions. With these changes, the audiologist must adapt to meet the needs of the consumer. There are potential predictors that the audiologist could use to determine who is more likely to pursue and use amplification; by using these data, the audiologists may increase their productivity and increase patient satisfaction. The goal of this article is to investigate the MarkeTrak 10 (MT10) data to determine the trends in adoption and use of hearing aids as well as examine predictive factors that can be used to determine hearing aid adoption.

Localization Performance

An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of completely-in-the-canal (CIC) hearing aids on auditory localization performance. Six normal-hearing listeners localized a 750-ms broadband noise from loudspeakers ranging in azimuth from –180° to +180° and in elevation from –75° to +90°. Independent variables included the presence or absence of the hearing aid and the elevation of the source. Dependent measures included azimuth error, elevation error, and the percentage of trials resulting in a front-back confusion. The findings indicate a statistically significant decrement in localization acuity, both in azimuth and elevation, occasioned by the wearing of CIC hearing aids. However, the magni-tude of this decrement was small compared to those typically caused by other ear-canal occlusions, such as earplugs, and would probably not engender mislocalization of real-world sounds.

Objective. The aim of the study is to identify the most significant factors influencing the audio-verbal rehabilitation outcomes in preschool children.Methods. The study included 104 children, 3–7 years of age, with hearing loss who underwent course of audioverbal rehabilitation in audiology center: 50 children after cochlear implantation, 51 children with hearing aids, 3 children without hearing care. The following data was collected at the beginning of the course: gender, type and degree of hearing loss, comorbidities, method and age of hearing care, family structure, preschool organization type. The scale of social and psychological diagnostics was filled in. The dynamics of indicators were estimated at the end of the course. The overall result was rated as high, good, medium or low. Correlations between clinical, audiological, social, psychological data and different rehabilitation outcomes were estimated.Results. Degree and type of hearing loss, method of hearing care, gender, age, and social aspects do not affect the rehabilitation outcomes. Hearing aid was performed before 3 years of age in 67% of children, and after 3 years of age in 33% of children in the group with high and good results. Hearing aid was performed after 3 years of age in 61% of children, and before 3 years of age in 39% of children in the group with medium and low results (p < 0.01). Burdened anamnesis and comorbidity was determined in 28% of children with high/good outcomes and in 59% of children with medium/low outcomes (p < 0.01). Children with medium results rarely have previous audiology therapy, 43.8% of cases (p < 0.01). Children with medium and low outcomes have statistically worse score according to the scale of social and psychological diagnostics (p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively).Conclusion. High results of audio-verbal rehabilitation in preschool children can be predicted by the age of primary hearing care (before 3 years of age), absence of comorbidities, previous audiology therapy, score at the scale of social and psychological diagnostics less than 17 points.
