Abstract

In France, with the “100% santé” reform, the sales of hearing aids were multiplied by 4.5 between 2019 and 2021. Multiple comparisons between class I (100% covered by healthcare) and II hearing aid devices were already conducted for mild to moderate hearing loss but none of them investigated the severe degree of hearing loss. Therefore, for the purpose of this study, 18 adults with a severe hearing loss and already equipped with hearing aids were recruited. They were randomly divided into two groups and underwent 3 assessments in 3 times (with 15 days interval): 1) fit with a class I or II hearing device, 2) Fitting with the other class of hearing aid, APHAB and hearing assessments and 3) APHAB and final hearing assessments. Overall results did not show any statistical differences between class I and II for patients with severe heating loss.
