Good Things To Know About Siemens Hearing Aids
For those who are hearing impaired, Siemens offer many products to choose from in hearing aids. Their most advanced product is the Siemens Centra Active hearing aid. For anyone who leads an active lifestyle there are no limits to what you can do with this kind of hearing aid. This product is also designed to be moisture resistant so if you like to keep fit with sporting activities, or during the summer go for walks, or be out in the garden, you are likely to perspire. Some hearing aid users have experienced problems with their aids from the summer heat or from the menopause which brings on hot flushes. Siemens have nanocoated their hearing aid to repel moisture and prevent corrosion so it makes it more reliable. It means you can enjoy more time outside especially in the Summer without the worry that when you work up a sweat your hearing aid will suddenly go on the blink.
This small instrument also comes with a clip-on microphone cover which it protects it from dust, moisture and even tiny particles like pollen. It can be annoying if you get a build up of pollen during the spring so it is good to have this protection.
Siemens have also come up with the development of the charger so you don't ever have to think about running out of batteries, which can be frustrating for the hearing aid wearer. There is nothing like being caught out without any spare batteries. We already use battery chargers for cell phones, digital cameras and video recorders so now that the technology is available for the hearing impaired is wonderful. Having batteries can be limiting and inconvenient so the Centra Active charger, offers a great help to the hearing aid wearer. Whilst you sleep the smart charger just takes five hours before it automatically switches off once done. You can use your hearing aid for a full day and evening with no worries.
Siemens also offer some other great products:
To determine which hearing aid is best for you tests will be performed on you to measure your degree of hearing loss including: audiometry, auditory brainstem response, emissions, otoa coustic, tuning fork and whispered speech. An audiologist is someone trained to evaluate hearing defects and treat them, and can determine the best type of hearing aid for you by looking at all the data from your tests. With some people there is added bone growth that interferes with how sound waves transmit. Surgery can stop or reverse this problem about 70% of the time. In the meantime, a hearing aid is useful before surgery, or if you still have some degree of hearing loss following surgery it may still be necessary to use one.
