Hearing aids. I. Conventional hearing devices.
State-of-the-art hearing aids incorporate advances in signal processing, miniaturization, and programmability. This technological progress has been accompanied by parallel enhancements in evaluating and fitting strategies. In addition, in the past several years, knowledge has increased about the influences of amplification on hearing ability and about the influences of hearing ability on benefit from amplification.
