Phonak: Benefits of speech recognition

Benefits in speech recognition in noise with wireless remote microphones in a simulated group setting for adults with hearing loss.

This study was designed to evaluate the potential benefits in speech recognition in noise for adults with hearing loss. Two different wireless remote microphones were compared to the use of a hearing aid or cochlear implant alone. When using the adaptive remote microphone technology in Roger™, participants experienced significant improvements in speech recognition in noise: up to 61% with the Roger Select™ and up to 45% with the Roger Pen™, versus the use of a hearing aid or cochlear implant alone in a simulated group setting.
