NCT03912779 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 56

Last updated 2019-04-11

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study will assess the impact of a hearing aid self-management intervention in first time hearing aid users compared to standard hearing aid self-management. Namely, the C2Hear multimedia videos, or Reusable Learning Objects (RLOs) will be used as the self-management intervention. A departmental hearing aid booklet (standard clinical care) will be used as the control intervention.

The study will determine the role of these RLOs in self-efficacy for hearing aid(s), hearing aid knowledge and readiness for action compared with standard hearing aid self-management education (hearing aid booklet) in groups of first time hearing aid users. Both groups will receive the education at the earliest audiology appointment (hearing assessment), helping to distinguish any impact of earlier education delivery.
