Hearing aid fitting
Hearing aid fitting is a procedure designed to restore hearing perception in cases of partial hearing loss.
Contemporary hearing aids improve speech intelligibility and spatial orientation, helping compensate for hearing loss and enhancing the patient's overall quality of life.
Selection is carried out on an individual basis, considering the degree and type of hearing loss, anatomical features, lifestyle and preferences. The procedure includes objective and subjective hearing examinations, selecting the optimal device, adjusting it, and monitoring it subsequently.
Before selecting a hearing aid, a complete audiological examination is necessary. This includes tonal audiometry, tympanometry and an audiology consultation. It is also important to clean the ear canals and eliminate any acute inflammation. Patients should inform the specialist in advance about any previous ear conditions, surgeries, or symptoms (e.g. tinnitus or dizziness).
Following an audiological examination, an audiologist will determine the type and degree of hearing loss, offering hearing aid options accordingly. Modern hearing aids vary in type (in-the-ear, behind-the-ear or in-the-canal), power, functionality and design. Once a device has been selected, the specialist will fit it and perform the initial setup. This process involves audiogram data and the patient's individual preferences. Several additional visits may then be required for fine-tuning and training in how to use the device. The audiologist will explain how to wear, care for and replace the batteries.
The fitting procedure involves using professional audiometers, tympanometers, and special software packages for calibrating and fine-tuning hearing aids. Specialists work with leading models and select devices that comply with international standards for hearing aids.
Adapting to a hearing aid can take from a few days to several weeks, depending on the duration of hearing loss and individual sensitivity. At this stage, the patient learns to perceive sounds with new intensity and to distinguish speech in complex acoustic conditions. Our specialists provide consultative support and, if necessary, recalibrate the device.
