Valor predictivo de la Escala de actividades diarias dependientes de la audición en la detección de la pérdida auditiva en personas mayores hospitalizadas

We conclude by showing that the HDDA Scale can be a useful tool to identify individuals with hearing loss, especially when their hearing loss is greater than 40 dB. However, it is important to note that, in the case of people with mild cognitive impairment, we observed that their answers to the questionnaire are less reliable and tend to underestimate the potential problems posed by hearing loss in their everyday life.
