Hearing aid troubleshooting based on patients' descriptions.

Lorienne M Jenstad1, Dianne J Van Tasell, Chiquita Ewert.   

Abstract

Clinical audiologists were surveyed to determine the terms that their patients use to describe their reaction to hearing aid fitting problems. From this survey, a vocabulary of 40 frequently reported terms was developed. A second survey of hearing aid fitting experts was conducted to determine their methods of troubleshooting a hearing aid fitting when the patient reports one of the frequently reported terms. There was a high degree of agreement among the 24 experts. Principal components analysis resulted in ten components that explained 90.8% of the variance in the experts' responses. These results can be applied as an expert system for fine-tuning hearing aid fittings.
