结局指标
主要结局
dB SNR (Decibel Signal to Noise Ratio) Score Using the OLSA (Oldenburg Sentence Test) Speech in Noise Test
时间窗: Day 1 of study, repeated on Day 14 of study
Target speech is presented from a speaker in front of participant while background noise is presented from 4 surrounding speakers. The level of noise is presented at 65 dB SPL (Sound Pressure Level),with target speech presented at variable levels, both louder and softer than the noise. The dB SNR is the level at which the participant can correctly repeat 50% of the words. A lower/negative dB SNR is better, indicating that 50% of the speech is understood when noise is louder than or close to the level of speech. This test was given in three, randomized conditions for each participant at two visits: 1) hearing aids in Automatic, 2) hearing aids in Automatic but Directionality and Noise Reduction customized by participant using the app (i.e. "preferred" settings), and 3) hearing aids in Automatic but with the Directionality set to lowest level 0, (i.e. omnidirectional), and Noise Reduction set to the highest level 10,or all the way on (i.e., "extreme").Results of both visits was averaged
