For the 37.8% (332\/878) that were utilizing hearing\u2010assistive devices, 32.8% (109\/332) reported using a behind\u2010the\u2010ear hearing aid, 23.8% (79\/332) used a contralateral routing of signal (CROS) hearing aid, and 21.7% (72\/332) used a bone conduction device. Notably, 41.9% (278\/663) of patients who previously underwent tumor treatment reported utilizing a hearing rehabilitation device at some point during VS management compared to 27.0% (58\/215) of those undergoing observation with serial imaging (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001). Of 275 patients with functional hearing in the ipsilateral ear, 26.5% (73\/275) reported having used at least one type of hearing device; 24.0% (66\/275) reported use of a conventional hearing aid, 0.7% (2\/275) a CROS aid, and 0.4% (1\/275) a bone conduction device. Among respondents reporting ipsilateral nonfunctional hearing, 44.9% (258\/575) reported having used at least one type of hearing device; 13.0% (75\/575) a CROS aid, and 12.3% (71\/575) a bone conduction device.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Even among a cohort with presumably elevated literacy surrounding hearing rehabilitation options, few patients with a history of unilateral vestibular schwannoma ultimately use hearing assistive devices long\u2010term, suggesting that most patients sufficiently adjust to unilateral hearing loss or are unsatisfied with the benefits achieved with current device options.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Level of Evidence<\/jats:title><jats:p>4 <jats:italic>Laryngoscope<\/jats:italic>,
