1. The mechanism of action of hearing aids
- Amplify sound: Hearing aids can first amplify sound, so that the hearing-impaired can hear the sounds of the surrounding environment more clearly.
- Frequency compensation: According to the characteristics of hearing loss, hearing aids can provide different gains for different frequencies to compensate for the hearing loss of hearing loss at certain frequencies.
- Noise suppression: Hearing aids usually have noise suppression function, which can reduce the interference of background noise and make it easier for hearing-impaired people to hear and understand speech sounds.
2. Benefits of hearing aids for hearing health
- Improve hearing clarity: Hearing aids can significantly improve the hearing-impaired's ability to perceive sound, allowing them to hear speech and environmental sounds more clearly.
- Improve communication skills: By improving hearing clarity, hearing aids help improve the hearing-impaired's ability to communicate with others and reduce communication barriers.
- Improve quality of life: Hearing aids can help hearing-impaired people better participate in social activities and improve their quality of life. For example, in family gatherings, friends' gatherings and other occasions, hearing aids can make it easier for hearing-impaired people to interact with others.
- Protect residual hearing: Hearing aids can provide different gains for different frequencies according to the hearing loss, thereby avoiding excessive amplification of sound and causing further damage to residual hearing.
3. The benefits of wearing hearing aids. From a scientific point of view, the benefits of hearing aids are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
- Physiological level: Hearing aids can effectively relieve hearing fatigue of hearing-impaired people and reduce the burden on the cochlea, thus helping to protect residual hearing.
- Psychological level: Hearing aids can improve the psychological state of hearing-impaired people, reduce negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, and improve their life satisfaction and happiness.
- Social level: Hearing aids help improve the social skills of hearing-impaired people, enable them to better integrate into society, and reduce social isolation caused by hearing impairment.
In general, hearing aids have brought significant hearing improvement and quality of life improvement to hearing-impaired people through their unique mechanism of action. However, it should be noted that the selection and configuration of OTC hearing aids should be carried out under the guidance of professional audiologists to ensure that they can achieve the best results. At the same time, OTC hearing aids are not omnipotent. For some severe hearing loss cases, comprehensive treatment may also be required in combination with other treatment methods.
