Hearing aids are medical devices that resemble tiny electronic gadgets that aim to improve an individual’s hearing by amplifying and processing sounds. Hearing aids make sounds more comfortable and intelligible to improve overall comprehension. Through this assistance, an individuals’ quality of life is improved as they can more clearly communicate and participate in everyday activities.

How do hearing aids work?

Hearing aids are an essential assistive medical device for any person who is hearing-impaired since they can enhance sound regions, distinguish voices, eliminate noise or wind, and shift frequencies. These devices use a microphone to pick up sounds, sending these sounds through the processor, which delivers them to the wearer through the device’s amplifier.

During a hearing aid fitting, the audiologist will ensure that the volume of the pitch is adjusted correctly to suit the patient’s specific hearing needs. This accuracy is provided by using a verification system, which is a measuring tool used to measure the patient’s perceived sound at the eardrum.
