Probably the most significant improvement is digital signal processing (DSP). DSP has become

standard since its introduction in the 1990s.

DSP allows for smaller devices, automatic adjustments, and

increased features.

Most people with hearing loss could get along fine without hearing aids if

they lived in a quiet environment. However,

most of us live in constant background noise

including television, kitchen noise, fans,

appliances, and others when others are talking.

Directional microphones Another way of

eliminating unwanted background noise. This

is done with two microphones working

together to improve the signal-to-noise ratio

(SNR).

Feedback management

Gone are the squealing hearing aids of the past. By making a stable gain

measurement in your ears, devices are programmed to

automatically detect when feedback

(squealing) is going to occur.

The use of multiple programs allows the listener to hear better in a variety of settings

such as quiet, noise, telephone,

and music.

These options are available on most

new devices; however, not all of these options are available on every model. Talk to an audiologist to see

which of these hearing aid options are best for you.
