2. Executive Summary
View Report Details
People are said to suffer from hearing loss when they have diminished sensitivity to the sounds that are normally heard by others. In speech
frequencies, certain people have relative insensitivity to sound. Such situation is termed as hearing impairment. The increase in volume above
the usual sound levels necessary before the listeners can detect it determines the severity of hearing loss. There are three types of hearing loss:
Conductive, Sensorineural and Mixed hearing loss. The hearing losses according to the severity are classified into four types: Mild, Moderate,
Severe and Profound hearing loss.
The global hearing aid market has a unique mix of dynamism and moderate growth at the same time. The market is dynamic in terms of
technological development and innovation while at the same time, it suffers from weaker growth. On the up side, the market is supported by full
and/or partial reimbursement programs in most of the developed world, rising proportion of elderly population (especially across the OECD),
increasing expenditure on healthcare on a global scale and rising prevalence of hearing loss. On the down side, rising out-of-pocket hearing aid
expenditure, price pressure and lower social acceptance remain the chief challenges for the market. However, cochlear implants and bone-anchored
hearing systems have emerged as the two bright spots within the hearing aid market.
