听力损失是老年人最常见的感觉障碍，它正在成为一个严重的社会和健康问题。特别是在老年人中，听力损失会损害信息交流，从而严重影响日常生活，造成孤独，孤立，依赖和沮丧，以及沟通障碍。由于发达国家的人口老龄化，老年性耳聋是一个日益严重的问题，据报道会降低生活质量（QoL）。老年性耳聋的进展无法补救;因此，这种情况的最佳管理不仅需要早期识别和康复，而且还应包括生活质量状态的评估及其评估。
Hearing loss is the most common sensory deficit in the elderly, and it is becoming a severe social and health problem. Especially in the elderly, hearing loss can impair the exchange of information, thus significantly impacting everyday life, causing loneliness, isolation, dependence, and frustration, as well as communication disorders. Due to the aging of the population in the developed world, presbycusis is a growing problem that has been reported to reduce quality of life (QoL). Progression of presbycusis cannot be remediated; therefore, optimal management of this condition not only requires early recognition and rehabilitation, but it also should include an evaluation of QoL status and its assessment.
