title: A structured approach to hearing aid selection.
abstract: Many different procedures have been suggested for use in hearing aid selection: the practicing audiologist must choose among them. A structured approach to the hearing aid selection process is most likely to result in an optimal choice for each patient. This paper describes one such approach to the process of hearing aid selection which attempts to customize the selection procedure to make maximum use of each individual patient's response capabilities. The approach is presented in generic form and one implementation is described in detail.
