[Responsible prescription of hearing aids].
A case report serves to document that sufficient cerebral circulation is mandatory for sustaining function of the brain. If impulses from the ear are not processed within the areas of the brain normally doing this, prescription of a hearing aid will not improve the capacity to perceive in a patient being hard of hearing. In these cases, one should rather examine the state of the cerebral circulation.
