简要总结
This project investigates how self-monitoring of hearing aids through an AI-based mobile app can complement physical and digital healthcare visits. The aim is to increase patient involvement in rehabilitation, enable hearing aid adjustments in everyday sound environments, and improve access to hearing care.
详细描述
Considering the growing population, healthcare is increasingly focusing on integrating digital solutions into care. Such solutions typically require active patient participation and have the potential to positively impact person-centered care.
The purpose of this project is to investigate the outcomes of complementing physical and/or digital hearing care visits with patient self-monitoring of hearing aids. Participants will undergo the standard steps of the hearing rehabilitation process. In addition, the intervention group will be offered the opportunity to self-monitor their hearing aids between physical and/or digital appointments using artificial intelligence (AI) integrated into a mobile application provided by a hearing aid supplier.
The focus is to increase patient involvement in the rehabilitation process, utilize adjustment possibilities in everyday sound environments, and improve access to hearing care for the target population.
