Clinical Trial: Investigations of Ear Tip Performance, Perceptions, and Experiences
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Hearing Aids
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Official Title: Novel Technology Adoption in the Audiology Clinic: Investigations of Ear Tip Performance, Perceptions, and Experiences
Brief Summary:
Normal hearing participants will be fit with a hearing aid and different types of customized earmolds.Hearing aids will be programmed to a simulated mild, flat, sensorineural hearing loss of 30 dB HL from 250-8000Hz.Objective acoustic real ear measures and subjective ratings of sound quality and physical comfort will be evaluated and compared between earmolds.Findings will help researchers to better understand the impacts of different earmolds and how each might affect overall point-of-care.
