> I saw a patient today with severe high frequency hearing loss, but normal
> through low and middle frequencies (250-2000 Hz = 5-15 dB HL; 3000 Hz and
> above 70-90 dB HL).  Most cases like this (that I have seen) do not
really
> want hearing aids and I've struggled with those having minimum motivation
> with such a loss.  This patient seen today is motivated to hear better in
> noise and I think he would do well with a high frequency emphasis BTE,
> although picking out there is fairly slim.  Can anyone suggest a
> manufacturer & model that has worked well for such a patient.
