- audiologic tests: pure tone audiometry, speech audiometry, impedence audiometry, distortion product otoacoustic emission, auditory brainstem response.
Dividing into "Hearing aids" group and "No hearing aids" group
- The use of hearing aids will be recommended to all included patients.
- Hearing aids group: patients who want to be prescribed hearing aids (28 subjects)
- No hearing aids group: patients who do not want to be prescribed hearing aids (28 subjects)
