Patent attributes
A method performed by an electronic hearing device with an earpiece configured to be worn in an ear, includes: engaging a hearing mode wherein a compensated output signal is based on current hearing compensation data. Performing a first fitting procedure including: obtaining first hearing compensation data via audiometric measurements; emitting an otoacoustic stimulation signal and capturing an acoustic signal including otoacoustic emissions. In response to receiving a first input signal, performing a first monitoring procedure including: emitting an otoacoustic stimulation signal and capturing an acoustic signal including otoacoustic emissions, if any. Determining a deviation value based on the second acoustic signal and the third acoustic signal; and determining whether the deviation value satisfies a first criterion. In accordance with a determination that the deviation value satisfies the first criterion, communicating a first notification signal indicative of the deviation from the hearing device.
