Some patients are not wearing hearing aids in both ears, and only one ear has hearing problems. However, because the patient does not pay attention to protect his or her hearing, the hearing loss of the other side of the ear also appears, but want to choose another brand of hearing aid, and the original hearing aid does not want to lose, thenBoth ears can wear different hearing aid brands?

The new hearing aids differ from the old hearing aids in that the sound quality must be different. Even if the new hearing aids and the old hearing aids are of the same brand and the same model, the acoustic characteristics of the newly-made hearing aids will have small differences and require an adaptation period. Of course, the closer the technology of the new hearing aid is to the technology of the hearing aid, the shorter the adaptation period.

When the new hearing aid is worn at the beginning, the patient does not necessarily feel better and hear better than the old hearing aid. I remember that when I switched from analog hearing aids to digital hearing aids more than a decade ago, because many children have already been accustomed to analog technology, when they just put on digital hearing aids, the children’s response is not as good as the old analog hearing aids. Some parents are very anxious. Don’t worry, I always want to change the hearing aid back to the original simulator. When parents and children insist on wearing a new digital hearing aid for a period of time (usually one to two months), the child gets used to it and the effect is good. At this time, when the child wears the original analog hearing aid, the child feels that the sound is too noisy and there is no way to adapt.

When the original hearing aid was first fitted, since the patient did not have the experience and feeling of wearing the hearing aid, the response of wearing the hearing aid was better than that when not wearing it, and the feeling was very good. However, when the machine is changed, because the new hearing aid is compared to the old hearing aid that has been adapted, and the patient has a rich experience in wearing the hearing aid, the requirements for the new hearing aid are very high, but the new hearing aid will not feel good. This situation is more common in the elderly.

For the hearing aid fitter, on the one hand, it is necessary to communicate with the patient, so that the patient and the family understand that the new hearing aid needs an adaptation period. On the other hand, it is necessary to thoroughly understand the characteristics of the patient’s hearing and the need for sound in various living and learning environments. At the same time, it is necessary to master the sound quality characteristics and effects of the old hearing aids. Through various test indicators, from the perspective of debugging, try to improve the effect of the new hearing aids and surpass the old hearing aids.

When the new hearing aid is selected, the hearing aid should be selected centering on the patient’s hearing characteristics and the demand for effect in life learning. As for the difference between the hearing aid brands, there is no limitation. As long as the technology of the hearing aid is most suitable for the needs of patients, it can solve the problem of patients in the long term. The new hearing aid can be different from the brand of the old hearing aid. The hearing aids of both ears can also be different brands of hearing aids. . However, from the aspect of maintenance of hearing aids, it is recommended to use hearing aids of the same brand of the same brand.
