Preventing Cognitive Decline: How Hearing Aids May Help Older Adults

Cognitive decline is an umbrella term used to describe both Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Dementia. According to the Journal of the Alzheimer’s Association, an estimated 12.23 million people in the United States were living with MCI in 2020, and this number is expected to grow to 21.55 million by the year 2060. Additionally, 6.07 million people were living with Alzheimer’s Disease (a type of Dementia) in 2020, and the number of people afflicted will grow to 13.85 million by the year 20601. While there are a variety of risk factors for developing MCI and Alzheimer’s Disease/Dementia, hearing loss has grown to become known as one of the most significant, modifiable risk factors for cognitive decline in older age.
