Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, it has been reported that the combined use of intensive acoustic therapy for the affected side of the ear is effective in recovering from deafness. Auditory rehabilitation is expected one of the novel approaches for the recovery. In the present study, we examined the effect of one-hour daily music listening intervention on the auditory evoked magnetic field (AEF) for patients with mild deafness using a sound collector which makes easy to hear and can present sound with little distortion. As a result, we demonstrated that AEF in the primary auditory cortex tended to increase compared to before the intervention. It may suggest that auditory rehabilitation with continuous listening to high-quality sound is useful for improving the auditory function.
