Programmable hearing aid system and method for determining optimum parameter sets in a hearing aid

摘要

A hearing aid system with a hearing aid has a matching arrangement with a first memory for several parameter sets available for selection for each of several hearing situations, an input unit for selecting a current hearing situation and for selecting one of the several parameter sets available for this hearing situation, and a second memory for allocation data that identify the parameter sets selected for each hearing situation. For the determination of an optimal parameter set for each of several hearing situations, an optimal user-specific parameter set is allocated to each hearing situation as it arises during an optimization phase. After the optimization phase, the allocation data are evaluated for the determining an optimal parameter set for each hearing situation. This parameter set is then permanently programmed as the parameter set which will be called to set the transmission characteristics of the hearing aid whenever the hearing situation allocated thereto occurs.
