Stanford Study Finds Vitality AI Helps Detect Fall Risk*

A recent Stanford University study found that the Balance Assessment feature within Audibel’s Vitality AI hearing aids demonstrated promising signs of identifying individuals at risk of falls—without requiring traditional vestibular screenings. This innovative feature leverages advanced sensor technology and artificial intelligence to monitor a user’s stability, providing valuable insights into their balance and movement patterns. By detecting subtle changes in gait and postural control, the Balance Assessment feature may serve as a proactive tool for healthcare providers and individuals alike, potentially reducing fall-related injuries and improving overall mobility. These findings highlight the potential of Vitality AI not only as a hearing solution but also as a critical tool in fall risk management, offering greater independence and safety for users.

*A recent peer-reviewed article, published in Otology & Neurotology, highlights the research between Starkey Research and Development and Stanford’s Department of Otolaryngology – Head & Neck Surgery to validate Starkey’s Balance Assessment feature.
