Auracast™ is important enough that it could completely transform how Bluetooth hearing aids and other listening devices gain access to audio transmissions. However, telecoils remain an important component in today's hearing aids.
hearingtracker․comA total of 187 tools using tones, speech, self-report, or a combination were reviewed and these tools varied in accuracy, quality, output/feedback, and functionality. Only 22 tools (12%) were peer-reviewed and 14 had acceptable functionality. Tone-producing tools provide approximate hearing thresholds but have calibration and background noise issues. Speech and self-report tools are less affected by these issues but mostly do not provide an estimated PTA. Predicting audiograms using filtered language-independent materials could be a universal solution.
