Because individuals function in a wide variety of listening environments we know that hearing devices alone may not provide enough sound information for learning or socialization purposes. FM systems and other assistive listening technologies may be useful to hearing aid and cochlear implant users. Your LTH audiologist will discuss assistive listening technology options with you during your appointment.
Why FM Systems? There are 3 main factors that interfere with an individual’s ability to hear in noisy environments:
- Distance from the speaker
- Background noise
- Reverberation
