The Feasibility of mHealth Technologies to Improve Hearing Aid Use and Benefit in First-time Hearing Aid Users
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Mobile-enabled RLOs (mRLOs) for Hearing Loss. Completed, enrolled 94 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study will establish the feasibility of a theoretically-driven, personalised educational intervention delivered through mobile technologies in first-time hearing aid users. Namely, the C2Hear (https://www.youtube.com/C2HearOnline) multimedia videos, or Reusable Learning Objects (RLOs) (Ferguson et al., 2015; 2016), will be repurposed into short 'bite-sized' mobile-enabled RLOs (mRLOs).The development of the intervention will be based on a recently developed comprehensive model of health behaviour change (COM-B) (Michie et al., 2014). The intervention will be tailored to individuals' needs, and incorporate greater user interactivity and self-evaluation.

Timeline
Interventions
A theoretically-driven, personalised educational intervention delivered through mobile technologies based on the C2Hear (https://www.youtube.com/C2HearOnline) RLOs. The mRLO intervention will include shorter 'bite-sized' RLOs suitable for mobile technologies. This will allow a unique dynamic tailoring approach, whereby relevant mRLOs will be provided based on the user's responses to a self-evaluation filter aid, which will enable individualised, tailored learning.
