Background: To investigate interaction between behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids, hearing assistive technologies, and programmable shunt valve to understand how use of BTE hearing aids in patients who underwent ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) surgery affects the settings of a programmable shunt valve.
Methods: In this study, we investigated the magnetic field (MF) generation of 3 BTE hearing aids made by different companies, 1 frequency modulated system using telecoil technology, and 1 wireless microphone technology and their interactions with 2 programmable shunt valves. All measurements were made in a silent booth using 2 different models.
