28 28 Preventing Cognitive Decline: Hearing Interventions Promising Barbara E. Weinstein, The Hearing Journal, September 2015
29 Self-Reported Hearing Loss: Hearing Aids and Cognitive Decline in Elderly Adults A 25-year Study Published in the Journal of the American Geriatric Society The main conclusion from Hélène Amieva s study is that: Self-reported hearing loss is associated with accelerated cognitive decline in older adults; hearing aid use attenuates such decline. 29
30 Conclusion
31 Take home messages Listening is where hearing meets brain Effort in listening is a useful indicator Hearing loss and cognitive decline are linked Social engagement is key Hearing technology can make listening easier.which means less effort, which means more social engagement! Use of hearing aids may help reduce the rate of cognitive decline (probably because the user is more socially active) 31
