What Are The Most Common Hearing Aid Types? Hearing loss is one of the top three most common chronic conditions in the U.S. It is twice as likely that an individual in the U.S. would experience hearing loss over cancer or diabetes. Hearing aids can significantly improve hearing and protect your hearing for longer. 30 percent of people report an improvement in their hearing within as little as 6 months or less when using a hearing aid for the first time. There are many different hearing aid types to suit many different lifestyles. Read on to find out more about the most common hearing aid types. Your ENT doctor will help you consider the best hearing aid for your needs. In-the-ear (ITE) hearing aids ITE hearing aids sit in the ear canal and are often custom made. Your ENT doctor may use a mold to take an impression of your ear, which will then be taken away and made into your hearing aid. Depending on the type of hearing loss, the hearing aid may fit quite far into the ear canal or sit closer to the outside of the ear bowl. The design of these hearing aids is often very discrete, with several skin shades available to ensure it blends in as much as possible. There are also full-shell (fits in the entire ear bowl), for more severe forms of hearing loss, or half shell, which sits snugly in the bottom half of the ear bowl. Behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids BTE hearing aids often sit behind or on top of the ear, with a transparent tube that relays sound to the ear canal. BTE hearing aids can be discrete, to match hair or skin tone, or come in a variety of unique designs if you want to show them off. BTEs come in different sizes depending on the battery size and power required. All the mechanics of the device are present at the top of the ear. These are the two standard types of hearing aids, and come with batteries which may need to be replaced every few days or weeks. These two types can be further broken down into different categories. Invisible-in-canal (IIC) hearing aids This type of hearing aid refers to ITE hearing aids which are invisible from the outside of the ear. The hearing aid is not placed in the outside bend of the ear, but the second bend. This sits snugly in the ear and improves the sound quality of an individual’s own voice. They are the smallest type of hearing aid available. In-the-canal (ITC) hearing aids This form of ITE hearing aid sits in the ear canal, on the outside bend of the ear. This is visible externally, and is slightly larger than the IIC model. The benefits of the larger model are that more custom features can be applied, such as better volume control. These are also better if you need a model that is easier to use. This is particularly useful if you require support with dexterity. Completely-in-canal (CIC) hearing aids These models are somewhere between the IIC and ITC models, and sit partially in the ear canal. These are smaller than the ITC hearing aids but bigger than the IICs, and are among the smallest hearing aid models out there. These models are not completely invisible like the IIC but do not fully sit on the outer bend of the ear like ITC models. Receiver-in-canal (RIC) hearing aids RIC hearing aids are a BTE hearing aid. However, unlike traditional BTE models, the speaker is located at the base of the tube that runs into the ear canal. Whereas a standard BTE contains the mechanical workings for the hearing aid in the device on top of the ear, the speaker for this model is present in a separate part that sits in the ear canal. Things to consider with hearing aids There are several different things to consider when looking at hearing aids: - The shape of the ear: Each ear has its own shape, and may be larger or smaller in size, with distinct contours. - The severity of the condition: Severe hearing loss may require a device with more features, and therefore may be slightly larger than the smaller models. - Handling: If you have some additional dexterity needs, some larger devices are easier to handle than others. - Lifestyle: If you lead an active lifestyle or engage in particular sports, this could influence the type of hearing aid you wear.

Postavljanje olive Da bi svaki put dobro postavili individualnu olivu u uho potrebno je strpljenje, vježbanje i pažnja.Ako budete imali problema sa stavljanjem olive obratite se Vašem specijalisti za slušne aparate. Prvo postavite individualnu olivu u uho a zatim postavite aparat iza uha. · Palcem i kažiprstom uhvatite cjevčicu na individualnoj olivi. Uhvatite cjevčicu na dijelu blizu ulaska cjevčice u olivu. Gornji dio olive treba da stoji okrenut prema gore. Kanalni dio olive treba da stoji okrenut prema ulasku u ušni kanal. · Ako imate poteškoća prilikom stavljanja olive, drugom rukom povucite ušnu školjku na dole, ili vrh ušne školjke povucite nazad i na gore. · Stavite olivu na ulaz u kanal. Pazite da ne savijete ruku ili cjevčicu. Gurnite kanalni dio olive u ušni kanal. Repić na olive treba da stoji na gore i da stane na svoje mjesto. · UkolikoVaše uho postane nadraženo od pokušaja da stavite olivu, namažite kremomspoljne ivice olive da bi lakše ušla na svoje mjesto.Pazite da krema ne dospje do rupice za izlaz zvuka na olivi.Ako je uho i dalje nadražno i/ili crveno, obratite seVašemspecijalisti za slušne aparate. Pogledajte se u ogledalo. Ako je repić vidljiv, to znači da nije dobro postavljen. Pređite kažiprstom preko uha. Ako pod prstom osjetite repić olive, to takođe znači da nije postavljena kako treba. Kažiprstom pritisnite repić tako da uđe u hrskavicu. Možete se pomoći drugom rukom tako što ćete povući ušnu školjku, da olakšate postavljanje.

Važno Nemojte vaditi individualnu olivu povlačeći slušni aparat. Tako možete razdvojiti aparat i olivu ili oštetiti cjevčicu. Postavljanje CIC aparata u uho Da bi svaki put dobro postavili aparat u uho potrebno je strpljenje, vježbanje i pažnja. Ukoliko imate poteškoća sa stavljanjem aparata obratite se Vašem specijalisti za slušne aparate. · Aparat za desno uho je obilježen crvenom a aparat za lijevo uho plavom bojom. · Aparat za desno uho stavljate desnom a aparat za lijevo uho lijevom rukom. · Držite slušni aparat palcem i kažiprstom sa mikrofonom okrenutim naprijed. · Kanalni dio aparata postavite u otvor ušnog kanala. · Drugom rukom lagano povucite ušnu školjku na dole dok aparat gurate u ušni kanal sve dok ne osjetite da stoji sigurno. Bezbednosna uputstva Slušni aparati i baterije mogu biti opasni ako se progutaju ili nepropisno koriste. Ovakvi postupci mogu dovesti do ozbiljnih povreda, trajnog oštećenja sluha, te čak i do fatalnog ishoda. Prije korišćenja slušnog aparata, u potpunosti se upoznajte sa opštim upozorenjima i sa sadržajem ovog upustva. • Slušne aparate treba koristiti samo u skladu sa uputstvima i podešavanjima od strane stručnog osoblja. Nepropisna upotreba ili neodgovarajuče podešavanje mogu dovesti do trajnog oštećenja sluha. • Nikada nemojte davati drugim licima da koriste Vaš slušni aparat jer je aparat podešen u skladu sa Vašim potrebama i može dovesti do trajnog oštećenja sluha kod druge osobe. • Udarac po uhu dok nosite slušni aparat može biti opasan. Izbjegavajte nošenje slušnog aparata kada se bavite sportovima koji uključuju fizički kontakt (npr. ragbi, fudbal i slično). • Slušne aparate, njihove djelove i dodatke držite van domašaja osoba koje ih mogu progutati ili na drugi način naneti sebi povrede. • Baterije držite van domašaja djece, kućnih ljubimaca ili osoba sa mentalnim smetnjama • Redovno čistite Vaše aparate. Mikroorganizmi na zaprljanim aparatima mogu izazvati iritaciju kože. • Budite pažljivi sa baterijama koje cure jer je ova tečnost vrlo štetna. • Nikada ne punite baterije koje nisu predviđene za punjenje. • Nikada nemojte mjenjati bateriju ili podešavati Vaš slušni aparat u prisustvu djece ili osoba sa mentalnim smetnjama. • Nikada ne stavljajte slušne aparate ili baterije u usta jer vrlo lako možete progutati. • Baterije čuvajte odvojeno od ljekova jer se lako može desiti da ih uzmete umjesto pilula. • U slučaju da progutate slušni aparat ili bateriju odmah se obratite lječniku. • Zapamtite da postoji mogućnost da slušni aparat iznenada prestane da radi. Imajte to na umu kada ste u saobraćaja ili kada na drugi način zavisite od zvučnih upozorenja. • Alate za čišćenje aparata nikada ne stavlajte u otvor za mirkofon ili zvučnik jer možete oštetiti aparat.
