Meaningful Outcome Measures in Adult Hearing Health Care

Recently completed

Adult hearing health care lacks standard outcome measures that are related in meaningful ways to the individual’s perception of their functional abilities and the impact their hearing difficulties have on their quality of life. The committee will determine a core set of existing standard outcome measures, define the core outcome domains (including hearing, communication, and other domains) that should be measured, and develop strategies and a set of recommendations to guide the development of standardized and meaningful measures that are fit for use in different settings. The prepublication report is estimated to be released in April 2025.
