Effect of Monaural Versus Binaural Hearing AID Treatment

H. Birk Nielsen

Abstract

On the basis of a questionnaire—for assessing the social hearing handicap—the effect of monaural and binaural hearing aid treatment was related to: (1) routine in using the hearing aid, (2) diagnosis, (3) hearing loss, and (4) patient's age. In comparable groups treated monaurally and binaurally a greater reduction of the social hearing handicap was obtained in all cases within the groups wearing binaural hearing aids.
