Objective: Listening difficulties in noise are common, even those with clinically normal hearing. There is a suggestion that subjective assessment of hearing may be more closely associated listening effort and fatigue rather than objective measures and/or speech perception.

Purpose A proportion of people with a normal audiogram or mild hearing loss (NA-MHL) experience greater-than-expected difficulty speech in noise. This preliminary exploratory study employed design thinking approach to better understand the clinical pathway and treatment options experienced by this population. Method Exploratory survey data were analyzed from 233 NA-MHL who had consulted clinician 47 clinicians. Qualitative analysis was performed on interview 21 seven Results revealed that...

<title>Abstract</title> Background Despite early identification of deafness through universal newborn hearing screening, deaf and hard children can still face inequitable challenges in their development life opportunities. Large scale registries, collecting standardised information including all individuals a population with the relevant condition, reveal variations practices, processes, outcomes, identify targets for improvement. For childhood deafness, where processes outcomes span...
