about Tinnitus SoundSupport
Device description
Tinnitus SoundSupport is a module function that can be enabled in the
hearing aids by a hearing care professional.
Maximum wearing time
The wearing time of Tinnitus SoundSupport will decrease as you
increase the level above 80 dB(A) SPL. The fitting software will
automatically display a warning when the hearing aid exceeds
80 dB(A) SPL. See “Max wearing time indicator” next to the tinnitus
fitting graph in the fitting software.
The volume control is deactivated
By default, the volume control for the sound generator is deactivated
in the hearing aid. Risk of noise exposure increases when the volume
control is activated.
If the volume control is activated
A warning may be displayed if you activate the tinnitus volume control
in the “Buttons & Indicators” screen. This occurs if the relief sound
can be listened to at levels that may cause hearing damage. The “Max
wearing time” table in the fitting software displays the number of hours
the patient can safely use Tinnitus SoundSupport.
• Note the max wearing time for each program for which Tinnitus
SoundSupport is activated.
• Write those values in the table “Tinnitus SoundSupport: Limitation
on use”, found in the back of this booklet.
• Instruct your patient accordingly.
