Abbreviated Profile of Hearing Aid Benefit (APHAB)Primary· 14-17 Days hearing aid wearing time per fitting type
The APHAB consists of 24 questions across 4 subscales: Ease of Communication (EC), Background Noise (BN), Reverberation (RV), and Aversiveness (AV), assessing hearing difficulties in daily situations reported as percentage of problems (0-100%, 100% = highest number of problems). It evaluates hearing aid (HA) benefit by subtracting the reported % of problems with HA from without HA, yielding scores from 0 (no benefit) to 100 (maximum benefit) in each subscale. The study focuses on the communication subscales (EC, BN, RV) and calculates benefit score differences for each subscale after using A)
