抄録

Hearing aids must be evaluated both at fitting and after prolonged use. We fitted hearing aids in 26 subjects, and evaluated their efficacy subjectively and objectively at fitting and after 3 months of use. We also evaluated satisfaction with the hearing aid using a visual analog scale. After 3 months, no significant difference was found in usefulness, except in conversation under noisy conditions and listening to TV. Satisfaction, however, decreased significantly. Although the decrese in satisfaction was studied comparing those with increased and decreased satisfaction, this was independent of observed usefulness. Results showed that satisfaction is affected by usefulness and other factors such as wear, howling, and hardware problems. Since some occur after long use, follow-up is clearly required after fitting. Evaluating both usefulness and other problems may increase satisfaction.
