Researchers found extended high-frequency audiometry (EHFA) in the 9-16 kHz region to be a highly sensitive method for early detection of hearing loss, with hearing thresholds decreasing as soon as 35 years of age. In males, the hearing thresholds grew with age more rapidly than in women. The ability to respond at EHF gradually decreased with age and increasing frequency.

Israel-based Alango Technologies has announced the launch of BeHear® SMARTO, a hand-held or body-worn hearing amplifier with Bluetooth® connectivity for people with mild to severe hearing problems. SMARTO is designed to enhance hearing and reduce background noise to clarify speech in live conversations, cell phone and video calls, and TV programs.
