Self-Fitting Air-Conduction Hearing Aid
- Page Type
- Product Code
- Definition
- A self-fitting air-conduction hearing aid is a wearable sound amplifying device that is intended to compensate for impaired hearing and incorporates technology, including software, that allows users to program their hearing aids. This technology integrates user input with a self-fitting strategy and enables users to independently derive and customize their hearing aid fitting and settings.
- Physical State
- The self-fitting air-conduction hearing aid consists of the following components that are worn on the body, typically at ear level: microphone, receiver, and signal processor. In addition, the device will have a user interface for adjusting the hearing aid.
- Technical Method
- A self-fitting air-conduction hearing aid incorporates technology, including software, used by the listener to configure parameters, settings, and listening modes to meet the user's listening needs.
- Target Area
- The self-fitting air-conduction hearing aid provides amplification to the ear.

CFR § 874.3325 Self-fitting air-conduction hearing aid
§ 874.3325 Self-fitting air-conduction hearing aid.
(a) Identification. A self-fitting air-conduction hearing aid is a wearable sound amplifying device that is intended to compensate for impaired hearing and incorporates technology, including software, that allows users to program their hearing aids. This technology integrates user input with a self-fitting strategy and enables users to independently derive and customize their hearing aid fitting and settings. A self-fitting air-conduction hearing aid is subject to the requirements in § 800.30 or § 801.422 of this chapter, as applicable.
(b) Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:
(1) Clinical data must evaluate the effectiveness of the self-fitting strategy.
(2) Electroacoustic parameters, including maximum output limits, distortion levels, self-generated noise levels, latency, and frequency response, must be specified and tested.
(3) Performance data must demonstrate the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), electrical safety, and thermal safety of the device.
(4) Software verification, validation, and hazard analysis must be performed.
(5) If the device incorporates wireless technology:
(i) Performance testing must validate safety of exposure to non-ionizing radiation; and
(ii) Performance data must validate wireless technology functions.
(6) Usability testing must demonstrate that users can correctly use the device as intended under anticipated conditions of use.
