Background: Age-related hearing loss, or presbycusis, significantly impacts communication, social interaction, and cognitive function. This study examined the relationship between Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly – Screening Version (HHIE-S) scores and hearing loss severity among the elderly in Sukawati Village, Gianyar.
Methods: A cross-sectional study of 50 elderly participants aged 60 years and older was conducted. Data were collected using the HHIE-S questionnaire and pure-tone audiometry, and analyzed using Pearson’s correlation.
Results: A strong positive correlation was found between HHIE-S scores and hearing loss severity (r = 0.896, p < 0.001), indicating that higher scores correspond to more severe hearing impairment.
Conclusion: The HHIE-S questionnaire is an effective tool for early detection of hearing loss in the elderly and is recommended for use in primary healthcare settings to enhance timely management and improve quality of life.
