摘要: 目的 探究单侧听力损失患者在噪声环境中的言语识别表现,考察助听器对不同程度单侧听力损失患者噪声言语识别的补偿效果。方法 纳入25例单侧听力损失患者,依据受试者听力水平将其中14例单侧中度、中重度听力损失者设为中-中重度组,另11例单侧重度、极重度听力损失者设为重-极重度组。以15例听力正常的健康受试者作为对照组。在声场中测试单侧听力损失患者佩戴耳背式助听器(BTE)和未佩戴BTE助听器在噪声环境中的言语识别阈值,以及固定信噪比(SNR)为0 dB和-5 dB时的言语识别率。采用单因素方差分析考察单侧听力损失受试者与正常人的差异显著性,配对样本t检验分析单侧听力损失受试者使用助听器的补偿效果。结果 两组单侧听力损失受试者相较对照组在噪声环境中的言语识别阈值均显著升高(P < 0.01),两组间差异不显著,固定SNR环境中的言语识别率均显著降低(P < 0.01),且两组间不存在显著差异;佩戴BTE助听器时两组受试者言语识别阈值显著下降(P < 0.01),言语识别率均有显著改善(P < 0.01)。结论 单侧听力损失达到中度以上的患者在噪声环境中的言语识别能力即表现出显著下降,患耳佩戴耳背式助听器对其噪声环境中的言语识别能力有较好的补偿效果。Abstract: Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the speech recognition in noise in patients with unilateral hearing loss(UHL), and explore the compensation effect of behind-the-ear(BTE) hearing aid on speech recognition in patients with varied degrees of UHL.Methods Twenty-five participants with UHL were divided into two groups according to the degree of hearing loss: one group included subjects with unilateral moderate and moderately severe hearing loss and another one included subjects with unilateral severe and profound hearing loss. Fifteen healthy subjects with normal hearing were enrolled as the control group. The speech recognition thresholds and speech recognition scores at fixed signal noise ratio(SNR) in UHL participants with and without BTE hearing aid were tested in the sound field and compared with those in the control group. One-way ANOVA was used to examine the significance of the difference between UHL participants and control group, and paired t-test was used to analyze the compensation effect of hearing aid on speech recognition in noise in UHL participants.Results The speech recognition thresholds were significantly higher in both UHL groups(P < 0.01) compared with the control group, there was no significant difference between two UHL groups. And the speech recognition scores were significantly lower when the SNR was fixed(P < 0.01), and there were no significant differences between two UHL groups. When fitting BTE hearing aid, the speech recognition thresholds of the two groups significantly decreased(P < 0.01), and the speech recognition scores significantly improved(P < 0.01).Conclusion Patients with above moderate UHL presented a significant decrease in performance of speech recognition in noise, and fitting BTE hearing aid on the affected ear had a positive compensation effect.
