The severity of a hearing impairment is ranked according to the additional intensity above a nominal threshold that a sound must be before being detected by an individual ; it is ( measured in decibels of hearing loss, or dB HL ).

A conductive hearing impairment is present when the sound is not reaching the inner ear, the cochlea.

Hearing aids, which amplify the incoming sound, will improve hearing ability, but nothing can restore normal hearing.

People with cochlear implants, hearing aids, or neither of these devices can also use additional communication devices to reduce the interference of background sounds, or to mediate the problems of distance from sound and poor sound quality caused by reverberation and poor acoustic materials of walls, floors and hard furniture.
