Prediction of hearing aid cognitive outcomes in age-related hearing loss

3 weeks 6 days ago
Although the phenomena underlying cognitive decline and dementia are complex, there is growing evidence suggesting that degraded sensory inputs caused by age-related hearing loss may play a central role in accelerating cognitive decline in older individuals. Further supporting this notion is evidence that hearing augmentation with hearing aids can mitigate hearing loss-related cognitive impairments. Despite this evidence, few studies have attempted to investigate hearing aid efficacy with a...
