However, studies focusing on the optimal hearing aid fitting for this group are scarce. Here, we aim to investigate the performance of alternative hearing aid fitting scenarios in improving hearing aid benefit and managing tinnitus.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Sixty-six participants were included in the study and randomly divided into three groups based on the fitting formula: NAL-NL2, DSL pediatric and hybrid gain fitting procedure (covering NAL-NL2 for low frequencies and DSL pediatric formulas for high frequencies). Hearing aid benefit was evaluated using the Abbreviated Profile of Hearing Aid Benefit (APHAB) questionnaire and speech perception in noise (SPIN). To evaluate tinnitus perception, psychoacoustic characteristics of tinnitus were determined, and the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) was gathered.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The NAL-NL2 fitting procedure showed better results in hearing aid benefit and SPIN compared to the DSL pediatric procedure. In the DSL pediatric procedure, better results were obtained in tinnitus management compared to NAL-NL2. There was no difference between the hybrid fitting procedure and DSL pediatric in tinnitus management. The hybrid fitting procedure also did not differ from NAL-NL2 in SPIN and hearing aid benefit.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Here, we propose a hybrid gain fitting procedure that can be a better alternative to boost hearing aid performance and tinnitus management in clinical practice.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405-024-08846-z","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,28]],"date-time":"2024-07-28T18:01:42Z","timestamp":1722189702000},"page":"6295-6302","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Performance of hybrid gain formula versus traditional fitting formulas in hearing aid fitting in tinnitus patients with hearing loss"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"281","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6363-6071","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eser","family":"Sendesen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3489-4842","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hasan","family":"Colak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,28]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"8846_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"321","DOI":"10.1016\/S0030-6665(02)00172-X","volume":"36","author":"PJ Jastreboff","year":"2003","unstructured":"Jastreboff PJ, Jastreboff MM (2003) Tinnitus retraining therapy for patients with tinnitus and decreased sound tolerance.
