Previous investigations have reported that the utilization of hearing aids can ameliorate these reductions in psychosocial function. To date, few investigations have examined the effects of frequency modulation\n technology on hearing handicap, adjustment to hearing loss, and communicative strategies. The purpose of this investigation was to examine these effects and to compare them to the benefits obtained when using hearing aids alone. Subjects ranged in age from 34 to 81 years and had mean pure-tone\n thresholds consistent with a bilateral moderate to severe sloping sensorineural hearing loss. All subjects wore hearing aids only and hearing aids plus FM system in a randomized fashion. The Communication Profile for the Hearing Impaired (CPHI) was administered prior to fitting the study devices\n and once a month for three months in each of the two conditions. A statistically significant difference between device conditions was obtained for the Importance of Communication in Work Situations subscale. Additionally, statistically significant differences over time were noted in several\n CPHI subscales. Despite statistical significance, none of these results were clinically significant. The implications of these results will be discussed. Los trastornos auditivos han sido asociados con una disminuci\u00f3n en el funcionamiento psico-social. Investigaciones previas han reportado\n que la utilizaci\u00f3n de auxiliares auditivos puede atenuar esta reducci\u00f3n en la funci\u00f3n psico-social. A la fecha, pocas investigaciones han examinado los efectos de la tecnolog\u00eda de modulaci\u00f3n de la frecuencia (FM) sobre el impedimento auditivo, el ajuste a\n la p\u00e9rdida auditiva, y las estrategias de comunicaci\u00f3n. El prop\u00f3sito de esta investigaci\u00f3n fue examinar estos efectos y compararlos con los beneficios obtenidos cuando se usan solamente los auxiliares auditivos. Las edades de los sujetos variaron entre 34 y 81 a\u00f1os\n y sus umbrales tonales puros promedio fueron consistentes con una hipoacusia sensorineural moderada a severa, con pendiente progresiva. Todos los sujetos usaron auxiliares auditivos y auxiliares auditivos m\u00e1s sistemas de FM, en una distribuci\u00f3n aleatoria. Se aplic\u00f3 el\n Perfil de Comunicaci\u00f3n para el Hipoac\u00fasico (CPHI) antes de adaptar los dispositivos del estudio, y una vez al mes durante tres meses, en cada una de las dos condiciones. Se obtuvo una diferencia estad\u00edsticamente significativa entre las diferentes condiciones del dispositivo\n por medio de la sub-escala de Importancia de la Comunicaci\u00f3n en Situaciones Laborales. Adem\u00e1s, en el tiempo se observaron diferencias estad\u00edsticamente significativas en varias sub-escalas del CPHI. A pesar de la significaci\u00f3n estad\u00edstica, ninguno de estos\n resultados fue cl\u00ednicamente significativo. Se discutir\u00e1n las implicaciones de estos resultados.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3766\/jaaa.16.4.6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,22]],"date-time":"2008-04-22T23:54:28Z","timestamp":1208908468000},"page":"250-261","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["The Effect of Hearing Aids and Frequency Modulation Technology on Results from the Communication Profile for the Hearing Impaired"],"prefix":"10.3766","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Samantha M.","family":"Lewis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Valente","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jane","family":"Enrietto Horn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carl","family":"Crandell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2087","container-title":["Journal of the American Academy of Audiology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ingentaconnect.com\/content\/aaa\/jaaa\/2005\/00000016\/00000004\/art00006","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,5]],"date-time":"2025-02-05T23:12:08Z","timestamp":1738797128000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ingentaconnect.com\/content\/10.3766\/jaaa.16.4.6"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,1]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,1]]}},"alternative-id":["1050-0545(20050401)16:4L.250;1-"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3766\/jaaa.16.4.6","relation":{},"ISSN":["1050-0545"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1050-0545"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,1]]}}}
