Associations Between Predisposing, Enabling, and Need Factors and Hours of Daily Hearing Aid Use in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study.
Purpose: Hearing aids are the primary treatment for age-related hearing loss but are vastly underutilized. We explored cross-sectional associations between predisposing, enabling, and need factors and hours of daily hearing aid use.
Method: In the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study, 764 participants at Visit 6 (2016-2017) reported hearing aid use. Self-reported hours of daily hearing aid use were modeled continuously (hours) and categorically (< 6, 6-12, and > 12 hr). Covariates included predisposing (age, sex, race-center), enabling (education, marital status, years of prior hearing aid use, global cognitive factor score, depressive symptoms, access to health care, health literacy), and need factors (pure-tone average [PTA], Quick Speech-in-Noise Test [QuickSIN] score). Multivariable-adjusted linear and ordinal logistic models were used to examine associations between these factors and daily hearing aid use.
Results: Every 1-year increase in prior hearing aid use was associated with 0.08-hr increase in daily hearing aid use (95% confidence interval [CI] [0.04, 0.13]); every 10-dB increase in PTA was associated with 0.63-hr increase in daily hearing aid use (95% CI [0.18, 1.08]); every 5-point increase in QuickSIN score was associated with 0.53-hr decrease in daily hearing aid use (95% CI [-0.99, -0.06]). Longer duration of prior hearing aid use and poor PTA and QuickSIN performance were associated with higher odds of being in a higher hearing aid use category.
Conclusions: Hours of daily hearing aid use is driven primarily by audiometric hearing, SIN performance, and years of prior hearing aid use. Further research into determinants of hours of use can improve precision of hearing care.
期刊介绍:
Mission: AJA publishes peer-reviewed research and other scholarly articles pertaining to clinical audiology methods and issues, and serves as an outlet for discussion of related professional and educational issues and ideas. The journal is an international outlet for research on clinical research pertaining to screening, diagnosis, management and outcomes of hearing and balance disorders as well as the etiologies and characteristics of these disorders. The clinical orientation of the journal allows for the publication of reports on audiology as implemented nationally and internationally, including novel clinical procedures, approaches, and cases. AJA seeks to advance evidence-based practice by disseminating the results of new studies as well as providing a forum for critical reviews and meta-analyses of previously published work.
Scope: The broad field of clinical audiology, including audiologic/aural rehabilitation; balance and balance disorders; cultural and linguistic diversity; detection, diagnosis, prevention, habilitation, rehabilitation, and monitoring of hearing loss; hearing aids, cochlear implants, and hearing-assistive technology; hearing disorders; lifespan perspectives on auditory function; speech perception; and tinnitus.
