“…Besides the availability of services and regulation by law, geographical proximity can be another facilitator for access to hearing rehabilitation. In a qualitative study conducted in a medium complexity service for hearing health, located in Itajaí, SC, Brazil, involving 19 elderly hearing aid users, the authors concluded that hearing impaired elderly individuals attributed the possibility of access to hearing aids to the establishment of a Hearing Health Care Center close to their neighborhood, since these services tends to organize the supply and availability of care (6) . Despite advances, effective use of hearing aids by the elderly is problem that audiologists find hard to resolve, a fact also highlighted in international studies.…”

“…A research performed to evaluate the speech recognition in noise between adults and elderly people without hearing loss demonstrated that the elderly people required more auditory cognitive and processing resources to understand speech in noise 32 . The preference and the benefit reported with one or two hearing aids are not related to the level of technology of the hearing aids [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] . Neither the age is limit factor to obtain benefits with digital technology 33 .…”

“…À medida que a idade aumenta, eleva-se a perda da sensibilidade, principalmente nas frequências altas (Veras e Mattos, 2007;Carmo et al, 2008), tanto para homens como para mulheres (Carmo et al, 2008;Nóbrega, Camara e Borges, 2008). Assim, espera-se ao longo dos anos, um aumento do número de pessoas com problemas auditivos, uma vez que o número de idosos tem aumentado (Fialho et al, 2009 Calais et al, 2008;Carmo et al, 2008;Guerra et al, 2010;Tenório et al, 2011 (Ventry e Weinstein, 1982;Souza e Lemos, 2015).…”
