Abstract

Introduction: The international outcome inventory for hearing aids (IOI-HA) is a questionnaire widely used to assess the subjective benefits of hearing aids. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between IOI-HA outcomes and target mismatch in real-ear measurement (REM).

Methods: Thirty-four ears of 25 patients who had worn hearing aids were evaluated using the Korean version of the IOI-HA and REM after fitting for 2 months. Real-ear insertion gain (REIG) was measured at three different levels of input intensity - 50, 65, and 80 dB sound pressure level (SPL) - and a frequency range of 0.25-6 kHz. Factors 1 and 2 and total IOI-HA scores were compared with the mismatches of REIGs and target gains of REM.

Results: Factor 1, factor 2, and total IOI-HA scores were 14.6 ± 3.5, 11.4 ± 2.2, and 25.9 ± 5.1, respectively. The averages of the difference of REIGs and target gains in REM at 50, 65, and 80 dB SPL input levels were -3.1 ± 6.7, -2.3 ± 7.2, and -3.0 ± 8.2, respectively. Factors 1 and 2 scores of the IOI-HA showed significant correlations with target mismatch in REM at 1 kHz and 0.75 kHz frequencies, respectively. Total IOI-HA scores had significant correlations with target mismatches in REM at 0.75 and 1 kHz frequencies.

Conclusion: IOI-HA scores correlated with target mismatch in REM at mid frequencies. The IOI-HA can be a useful screening measure for evaluating the necessity of further adjustments in hearing aids through REM at mid frequencies.

国际助听器效果调查问卷与真实耳部测量结果的比较。

简介国际助听器效果清单（IOI-HA）是一份广泛用于评估助听器主观效果的问卷。本研究旨在评估 IOI-HA 结果与真耳测量（REM）目标不匹配之间的关系：方法：在验配助听器 2 个月后，使用韩国版 IOI-HA 和 REM 对 25 名佩戴过助听器的患者的 34 只耳朵进行评估。在三种不同的输入强度水平（50、65 和 80 dB 声压级 (SPL)）和 0.25 至 6 kHz 的频率范围内测量了真实耳插入增益 (REIG)。将因子 1 和因子 2 以及 IOI-HA 总分与 REIG 和 REM 目标增益的不匹配进行比较：因子 1、因子 2 和 IOI-HA 总分分别为 14.6 ± 3.5、11.4 ± 2.2 和 25.9 ± 5.1。在 50、65 和 80 dB SPL 输入水平下，REM 中 REIG 与目标增益之差的平均值分别为 -3.1 ± 6.7、-2.3 ± 7.2 和 -3.0 ± 8.2。在 1 kHz 和 0.75 kHz 频率下，IOI-HA 的因子 1 和因子 2 分数分别与快速动眼期的目标错配有显著相关性。IOI-HA 总分与 0.75 和 1 kHz 频率下快速动眼期的目标错配有显著相关性：结论：IOI-HA 评分与快速动眼期中频的目标错配相关。IOI-HA 可以作为一种有用的筛选方法，用于评估是否有必要通过 REM 进一步调整中频助听器。

期刊介绍： ''Audiology and Neurotology'' provides a forum for the publication of the most-advanced and rigorous scientific research related to the basic science and clinical aspects of the auditory and vestibular system and diseases of the ear. This journal seeks submission of cutting edge research opening up new and innovative fields of study that may improve our understanding and treatment of patients with disorders of the auditory and vestibular systems, their central connections and their perception in the central nervous system. In addition to original papers the journal also offers invited review articles on current topics written by leading experts in the field. The journal is of primary importance for all scientists and practitioners interested in audiology, otology and neurotology, auditory neurosciences and related disciplines.
