The research behind Phonak features and products and other scientific findings in the hearing industry.
Research suggests that stigma does play a role in hearing aid adoption but it’s not so clear cut exactly how it does and there are still many unanswered questions. Here’s a sneak peek at what new research discoveries are soon to be released.
Hearing aids do more than amplify sounds. It is time to start talking about what hearing rehabilitation can truly mean for an individual.
A recent field-trial showed that Marvel is easy (and super quick!) to pair with smartphones, offers true hands-free phone calls and was rated as having high sound quality.
Research tells us that giving patients more control over their own devices has numerous perceived benefits and could positively impact overall well-being.
In the last decade, a considerable amount of research has significantly extended our understanding of the impact of hearing loss on quality of life. We must use this knowledge and change the way we talk about it.
Children with hearing loss have reduced access to speech, even when they use hearing aids. Remote microphone systems can improve auditory access. Can they also improve language outcomes for children?
Phonak experts are collaborating with research teams globally to develop a clinical model for the assessment and management of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and in parallel are continuing research in this important space.
Our initial experience reinforces the decisions we make. That’s why a positive first fit enhances the opportunity for hearing aid success.
Living in a time when we no longer just take a marketing claim at face value, but rather prefer to experience it ourselves and make our own judgement.
In a study conducted at Hörzentrum Oldenburg, StereoZoom has been shown to significantly reduce listening effort in comparison to a spatial noise reduction approach in a competitor device.
Communication analysis shows that StereoZoom positively impacts communication in a speech-in-loud-noise environment.
A closer look at the safety and performance requirements of the newly introduced Medical Device Regulation. You may agree that its introduction is a stroke of luck for audiologists and clinicians too.
