Child: "Can you get better recently?"

Old man: "Oh, I'm full at noon."

Child: "... No, I ask you how about your body?"

Old man: "Itchy? I don't itch?"

child:"……"

We follow up with the older people, and we often appear such a crimson and laughter. This is because the listening of the elderly often decreases. With the age of age, this phenomenon gradually appears, which is a common phenomenon in the process of human aging.

Although the fictional dialogue in the above looks a bit happy, as an old man, in fact, the heart will be very painful, because the most important function is to communicate with others in addition to the alert protection function. If the hearing decline is significantly reduced, the daily speech exchanges will inevitably affect the quality of life and mental health of the elderly.

So why does the elderly decline and should the hearing device improve? Let's talk about this issue today.

Why does the elderly decline?

Scientific research shows that in addition to the whole body and ear diseases, the decline in age of age is also related to the following points:

1) The "aging" and recession of the auditory system;

2) Genetic factors;

3) External environmental factors, such as long -term high -intensity noise contact and ototoxic drugs.

However, in general, this recession is indeed unavoidable. What we can do may mainly pay more attention to protecting hearing. Fortunately, even if the elderly have declined, there are still ways to remedy, so as to not affect communication as much as possible. However, many elderly people are unwilling to do so. Why?

Should the elderly wearing a hearing aid?

Traditionally believes that the decline of the elderly hearing power is an inevitable phenomenon of the elderly. Therefore, it is passively accepted after hearing decline, but he cannot accept hearing aids to make his "aging" in the public. Behind this phenomenon, there is a question of how to actively treat hearing aging and how to formulate the concept of rehabilitation.

In 2001, the "World Health Organization for Function, Disability and Health International Classification Standards" emphasized the concept of "biological-psychological-society", and disability rehabilitation needs to pay attention to related social issues. In addition to affecting the physical and mental health of the elderly, if the hearing loss is serious, it will affect the quality of life, social exchanges, and even personal safety. In response to the decline in hearing for the elderly, we should actively treat various problems caused by the direct and indirect communication caused by hearing loss or hearing disability, and provide a scientific and effective hearing rehabilitation plan for the elderly who are listening or hearing impairment to avoid passive separation from separation from separation from separation The surrounding communication environment.

As a family member, we must also understand the relevant knowledge related to the hearing aid, and actively persuade the elderly to conduct hearing inspection. If necessary, you should check the hearing device, because this can not only improve the quality of life of the elderly, but also make the entire family more harmonious. Think about it. It is known that if the daily communication with the elders is poor, it will definitely accumulate resentment and affect family relationships.

Can I buy hundreds of hearing aids online?

A large number of research results show that wearing hearing aid is the best solution, but the public knows very little about hearing aids, and even some people think that wearing hearing aids will cause hearing to decline rapidly.

The fact is that if the hearing aid is selected scientifically, learns and master the performance of hearing aids, hearing aids will not cause hearing decline. Without professional and precise hearing tests, it is not possible to buy inappropriate hearing aids, just like the square structure in the round holes, which cannot be fitted. Not only can it not improve the hearing, but it may be possible.

So how can I choose to be applied to the appropriate hearing aid? First of all, actively booking an experienced experts conducted detailed anteronic examinations. In addition to the disease that needs to be treated, parallel hearing testing to determine the nature and degree of hearing loss, and then make an appointment with a qualified hearing compatriot Read the maximum hearing aid effect. It should be noted that detailed hearing testing is a prerequisite for the appropriate selection and achieved the best hearing aid effect. Obtaining precise and accurate dual ear hearing loss data, providing accurate distribution solutions for hearing compensation for hearing aids, and then release the best hearing aid performance. In addition, no hearing aids are completely defined as "senior hearing aids". In view of the characteristics of elderly deafness, high -performance hearing aids are needed to achieve the best hearing aid. If the number of frequency channels for hearing aids are too small, the hearing aid output intensity cannot accurately match the inconsistent characteristics of the frequency hearing loss. Some frequency stimulus may occur and insufficient frequency stimulation, resulting in poor use experience, more complaints, and even negative emotions to the hearing aid to the hearing aids. Essence

At present, most hearing aids on the market adopt digital signal processing technology. According to the hearing aid style, it can be divided into:

① Box -type hearing aid (basically eliminated). Such hearing aids are as small as a small radio -sized rectangle. The bottom of the bottom is noise, the sound is easy to distort, and the sound quality is poor.

② Bone -guided hearing aid is different from the output of the ear back and in -ear hearing aid. The bone hearing aid is not directly emitting sound, but an audio mechanical vibration, congenital external ear lock, etc. It is not suitable for wearing a traditional air guidance aid.

③ The ear -back hearing aid, with a variety of appearances, suitable for most hearing loss groups.

④ Customized in -ear hearing aid, with a small appearance, is customized according to the size of the user's ear canal, which is suitable for patients with light and moderate hearing loss.

Facing the hearing impairment and speech communication obstacles of patients with senior hearing loss, early refined hearing testing and high -performance hearing aid options are performed early, which not only improves the visibility, prevent hearing deprivation, but also improves frequency analysis capabilities and time in the noise environment and the time of time.Domain analysis ability.In addition, learning to master hearing aid performance is also an important part of achieving the best listening effect.The article is produced by the popular science China-Starry Cultivation Plan.
