A REVIEW OF THE PERFORMANCE OF WIRELESS SYNCHRONIZED HEARING AIDS
Journal Title: Journal of Hearing Science - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Some paired digital hearing aids use wireless technology to communicate with each other and generate improved binaural information. Coordination between the two ears makes it easier for the brain to identify sound sources and understand speech even in complex environments. How well does this technology work. This article gives an evidence-based review.
