Overview
The author describes his own experience with analog and digital hearing aids. He univocally prefers the digital hearing aids, specifically the hearing aids, ITE, ITC and CIC, which should be ušed in the future in most cases. The situation is complicated in prelingually deaf children, where the cochlear implantation (CI) is indicated. At the present time the prescription of the digital hearing aids is complicated due to economic reasons. The fitting of digital hearing aids is very time consuming and the audiologist must be very well experienced in audiology.
Key words:
experience with analog and digital hearing aids, priority of ITE, ITC and CIC hearing aids.
