Method and hearing device for tuning a hearing aid from recorded data

摘要

A hearing device and an associated method for tuning a hearing aid include at least one hearing aid and at least one external unit. The device includes the following: a memory unit in the hearing aid which stores the times and the listening situations for which at least one predefinable algorithm for signal processing is activated; an output unit in the hearing aid and/or in the external unit which outputs and/or displays the stored times, listening situations and the activated algorithm; an input unit in the hearing aid or in the external unit for inputting an assessment rating which expresses the hearing aid wearer's satisfaction with the algorithm activated, and a change unit in the hearing aid for changing at least one parameter of the algorithm as a function of the assessment rating. Even algorithms of very short duration, such as an MPO, for example, are trainable.

1. A method of tuning a hearing aid, the method which comprises the following steps:
wearing the hearing aid by a hearing aid user; while the hearing aid is being worn by the hearing aid user and the hearing aid is in an operational mode, storing times and listening situations in the hearing aid for which at least one predefined signal processing algorithm is activated; subsequently switching the hearing aid to learning mode; outputting the stored times and listening situations and the respective signal processing algorithm that was activated while the hearing aid was in the operational mode; inputting an assessment rating representing the hearing aid wearer's satisfaction with the signal processing algorithm that was activated while the hearing aid was in the operational mode; and changing at least one parameter of the algorithm as a function of the assessment rating.
