Sorry to see that Costco is not on the list and that the closest BP is too far away.

Is it possible to talk about OTO-413 soon?

Great video! Do any of your patients/customers fine it a little uncomfortable wearing behind the ear hearing aids such as Signia Styletto with glasses? I did during my 45 day trial.

@rachaelcookaud2695 Жыл бұрын

Many patients are able to wear both, but if your frames are thick, you may find that they fight for space. You may be a better candidate for in the ear hearing aids, so be sure to express any concerns to your provider!

What about hearing protection whilst wearing behind the ear hearing aids? I have these big bulky ear cups but they always hurt my ears after barely 30min of wearing And I work in the trades so with grinding, welding, trucks etc. And I am heavily hearing impaired (~70db loss on one side and around ~80db loss on the other side)

Actually that's correct it takes exactly 30 days for your brain to adapt took mine just as long if you can believe it

Why do REMs need to be done?

@nationbmx Жыл бұрын

Going through my trial period with Signia Silk x2 hearing aids. My left ear is repeatedly giving me feedback issues. So far we've adjusted the volume and eq and swapped out for a closed dome. Still having issues. I wonder if ear wax could be a driver for this?

@kaylasmusic Жыл бұрын

Was the feedback test ran?

@Bleys1973 Жыл бұрын

Does the VA contract with you guys? I'm in the prescott area. My fitting seemed really rushed. It took about 30 minutes at most and definitely no real ear measurement. My experience actually makes me not want to go back. Nice people, but feel it like it was less than what I needed.

@rachaelcookaud2695 Жыл бұрын

We are not contracted with the VA but we have many patients who obtain their technology through the VA and see us for fitting and follow-up care of their devices. Give us a call for a consultation appointment!

So you're saying that you order what you think is right for our hearing aid prescription? So you're saying you don't give the patient a couple 2 or 3 options to choose from, you just fit us with you think is best for our hearing prescription?

@levilundquist8100 Жыл бұрын

Real ear measurements should actually be done after hitting prescription targets.

@bevintx5440 Жыл бұрын

While my hearing aids were in my ears and connected via Bluetooth to a laptop, my audiologist ran a program that sent various sounds to my hearing aids. He told me that was real ear measurement. Is that true, or was that something else?

@robertwingham Жыл бұрын

Mine did same thing said it was real ear measurement and anti feedback test

@rachaelcookaud2695 Жыл бұрын

This sounds like something called in-situ audiometry which is similar to a hearing screener ran through your hearing aids. This is not real-ear measurement, so be sure to ask for that at an in-person appointment. It makes all the difference!
