Sumario:The efficacy of wireless digital CROS and BiCROS hearing instruments was determined for 12 adults with single-sided deafness (SSD) and 12 adults with asymmetrical hearing loss. Participants’ speech-recognition performance in noise (with a loudspeaker arrangement that was disadvantageous) significantly improved when using the CROS/BiCROS devices as compared to the unaided condition. Ratings on three subjective questionnaires yielded positive average CROS/BiCROS ratings from the participants in this study. Given the results of the present study and results from previous investigations, these instruments may be considered on a trial basis for individuals with SSD or asymmetrical hearing loss.
