Hearing

53.0K
When we hear a sound, our nervous system is detecting sound waves—pressure waves of mechanical energy traveling through a medium. The frequency of the wave is perceived as pitch, while the amplitude is perceived as loudness.

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

5.8K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Digital Health
  • Gerontology

Background:

  • Digital therapeutics (DTx) are software-based interventions for health conditions.
  • Revised standards require DTx to be evidence-based with proven effectiveness and patient satisfaction.
  • Older adults often face challenges adjusting to hearing aids and managing hearing loss.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a hearing health care digital therapeutic (DTx) in older adults.
  • To determine if a DTx can improve adjustment to new hearing aids.
  • To assess the DTx's impact on older adults' acclimation to hearing loss.

Main Methods:

  • Thirty older adults with mild/moderate hearing loss, new to hearing aids, participated.
  • Participants used a hearing health care DTx (Amptify) for 4 weeks, with remote hearing aid fitting.
  • A control group watched closed-caption television; satisfaction was assessed via questionnaire.

Main Results:

  • 96% of participants reported positive benefits from the DTx.
  • Half of participants found the DTx helpful for adjusting to new hearing aids.
  • Benefits included enhanced conversational ability and increased listening confidence.

Conclusions:

  • The study provides scientific evidence supporting the use of hearing health care DTx.
  • DTx can facilitate remote aural rehabilitation, improving clinical efficiency.
  • Audiologists can integrate DTx to enhance patient care and outcomes for hearing loss.
