  • Title: Assistive listening devices and hearing aids: coupling considerations.
    Author: Davidson SA, Noe CM.
    Journal: Folia Phoniatr Logop; 1996; 48(3):143-9. PubMed ID: 8768367.
    Abstract:
    Assistive listening devices (ALDs) can be used to supplement hearing aid performance in difficult listening conditions, but caution must be used when coupling ALDs to personal hearing aids because the frequency-gain characteristics of the hearing aid may be altered. Data illustrating subject performance using ALDs coupled to personal hearing aids, ALDs with headsets, and ALDs coupled to hearing aids with programmable telecoils are presented to illustrate the problems associated with coupling ALDs and hearing aids and to provide possible solutions to these problems.
