Protocol summary

Study aim
Effect of TFS based rehabilitation training on the binaural temporal fine structure processing and speech performance in noise in elderly with mild to moderate hearing loss
Design
Clinical trial with a control group, single blind, randomized
Settings and conduct
The study population is aged 60-75 years old with mild to moderate hearing loss referring to the Audiology Clinic of the Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences of Iran University of Medical Sciences. The statistical sample will be selected based on the inclusion criteria for entering the present study and will be divided into two groups of study and control group (which will not receive rehabilitation).

Inclusion criteria: Age range 60 to 75 years, Mild to moderate hearing loss, Lack of central nervous system diseases and lack of history of head trauma, epilepsy, No use of nerves drugs, Disturbance in Speech Noise Tests, Binaural TFS, Being Right handed, Acquisition lack of cognitive disorders based on the evaluation results of the MMSE cognitive status examination, Being monolingual, Lack of professional music experience, Ability to collaborate on tests. Exclusion criteria:  Unwillingness to collaborate and participate in the research project at each stage,  Inability of the individual to perform any of the tests for reasons such as insufficient focus.
Intervention groups
Intervention of rehabilitation training in the elderly with mild to moderate hearing loss
