Abstract

Background: There is a dearth of information on the effects of bone conductive devices on temporal processing in individuals with single-sided deafness (SSD). This study investigates the effect of an adhesive bone conductive device on temporal processing in adults with SSD.

Methods: A prospective cohort study of temporal processing in adults with SSD was undertaken. Outcome measures were the pitch pattern test (PPT) and the duration pattern test (DPT) scores, sound field pure tone audiometric (PTA) averaged hearing thresholds, and word recognition scores (WRS). These were measured under 3 conditions: unaided in quiet, unaided in noise, and aided in noise. Eight SSD novice hearing amplification users were recruited.

Results: The adhesive bone conduction device (BCD) resulted in a statistically-significant improvement (Wilcoxon signed ranks test, P = .018) in median [interquartile range (IQR)] PPT score, 65% (IQR = 35.5), and DPT score, 38% (IQR = 42.5) in noise.

Conclusions: Adults with SSD demonstrated improved temporal processing scores with masking of the normal-hearing ear when using an adhesive BCD placed behind the deafened ear.

非手术黏附骨传导装置对成人单侧耳聋颞加工性能的影响：一项初步研究。

背景：关于骨传导装置对单侧耳聋（SSD）患者颞加工的影响的信息缺乏。本研究探讨粘接骨传导装置对成人SSD颞叶加工的影响。方法：对成人SSD患者的时间加工进行前瞻性队列研究。结果测量为音调模式测试（PPT）和持续时间模式测试（DPT）得分，声场纯音听力（PTA）平均听力阈值和单词识别得分（WRS）。这些都是在三种情况下测量的：安静、噪音和噪音。招募8名SSD助听器新手用户。结果：黏附骨传导装置（BCD）的PPT评分中位数[四分位数范围（IQR）]改善了65% (IQR = 35.5)， DPT评分改善了38% (IQR = 42.5)，差异有统计学意义（Wilcoxon符号秩检验，P = 0.018）。结论：成年SSD患者在耳聋后使用粘附性BCD遮盖正常听力后，表现出时间处理得分的提高。
