WIDEX BABY440

Hearing is crucial to language development. That’s why it is vital to provide the best possible auditory support to babies diagnosed with hearing loss. We believe the best way to do this is to focus on the needs of babies in terms of size, audibility and fitting.
 

Minimum size, maximum comfort

WIDEX BABY440 is a Receiver-In-The-Ear (RITE) hearing aid designed exclusively for babies. Its miniature size means that babies can easily wear it with comfort. It is light and soft on the ear, sits securely and contains no accessible parts.

• EarWire: New and improved design that is even stronger
  
• Instant receiver ear-tip: New ear-tip to ensure sealing in ear canal; includes pressure relief for comfortable insertion and secure attachment for RECD probe
  
• ClearBand receiver: A wide bandwidth receiver for babies to provide the optimal preconditions for speech acquisition
  
• Soft anchor: New and specifically designed soft anchor holds the hearing aid in place, allowing better fixation of the instant ear-tip
  
• Eye loop: The eye loop attaches the SecureFix retention string which prevents the baby from losing their hearing aid
  
• LED: Gives visual indications of hearing aid use

Our range of secure features offers the utmost flexibility, with a wide palette of safety features to give babies comfort and parents peace of mind.
 

Supporting language development

It is vital that babies have access to all sounds in the speech spectrum. The extended bandwidth in the WIDEX BABY™440 hearing aid aims to ensure the reproduction of high-frequency sounds and to support more rounded speech and language development.

With its ClearBand receiver, WIDEX BABY440 extends high frequency output even beyond 10 kHz, exceeding that of traditional hearing aids:

Faster, more accurate fitting

With babies, specialist fitting is crucial. The new ChildFit fitting flow in Compass is designed to make the fitting process of WIDEX BABY440 both accurate and fast and is dedicated to meeting the needs of babies during the fitting session.

The WIDEX BABY™440 hearing aid is also fast and easy to customise with an instant receiver ear-tip option. For both professionals and parents this lessens the time spent on frequent ear impressions and waiting for new earmoulds while for babies there is less discomfort.
