Study Summary
The overall aim of the study is to compare the verification accuracy and hearing-aid outcomes between the traditional, fitting approach where the patient is present during the visit and a coupler-based fitting approach where the patient is not present and mailed their hearing aids. If the coupler-based fitting protocol tested in this study as effective as the traditional fitting protocol, then patients receiving replacement hearing aids may circumvent a face-to-face visit.
Primary Outcome
Deviation from prescriptive target (re: in situ REAR) from both ears of each participant for each group. This measure reflects the accuracy of the hearing aid fittings from 250 Hz through 3000 Hz (the average bandwidth of audibility).
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL standard hearing aid fitting
- BEHAVIORAL coupler-based fitting
