Hearing Resources and Outcomes in the Emergency Department (HERO-ED)

Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Hearing Loss

In brief

The Hearing Resources and Outcomes in the Emergency Department Pilot (HERO-ED Pilot), gathers preliminary data and hones procedures and measures, prior to undertaking HERO-ED. Since the HERO-ED Pilot does not involve random assignment (no control group), it will not test device effectiveness. However, the HERO-ED Pilot will test device acceptability and use. It will also provide preliminary data on, and allow us to fine-tune, the measures of effectiveness that we plan to use in HERO-ED
