About this study

Official title: Comparison of Synchronous or Delayed Speech Therapy and Audioprosthetic Care in Older Adults With First-time Hearing Aids

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the score of the Evaluation of the Impact of Deafness in Adults(ERSA)/150 questionnaire obtained at 3 months compared to the inclusion score.

Read the detailed description

This is a pilot, prospective, interventional, comparative, randomized, longitudinal, open, multicenter study comparing synchronous and delayed hearing aid and speech therapy.

Patients will be randomly divided by drawing lots into 2 groups. Both groups will benefit from a hearing aid prescription and speech therapy for a series of 24 sessions at the rate of 1 per week, for an approximate duration of 6 months. Group A will benefit from speech therapy and synchronous equipment, and group B will begin speech therapy after 3 months after the installation of the equipment.

Regarding the equipment, it will not be the same for all patients. Indeed, it is the one that will best suit the patient who will be chosen. The same will apply to the settings, in accordance with the usual support.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assessment of the Impact of Deafness in Adults

    Score of the questionnaire "Assessment of the Impact of Deafness in Adults" obtained at 3 months compared to the inclusion score.

    The ERSA (Evaluation of the Repercussions of Deafness in Adults) assesses four areas: quality of life, personal life, social life and professional life. It is rated out of 200 or out of 150 in the absence of professional life. The higher the ERSA score, the better the patient's quality of life.

    Measured: 3 months
