A Study Evaluating the Application of Hearing Aid Technologies to Signal Processing for Adult Cochlear Implant Recipients
Sponsor:

Cochlear

Brief Summary:

A feasibility, prospective, multi-centre, repeated measures investigation evaluating the application of hearing aid technologies to signal processing for adult cochlear implant recipients

Condition or disease

Hearing Loss

Intervention/treatment

U8

N8 sound processor

Phase

NA

Detailed Description:

The Research System is comprised of several components: the processing unit, fitting software and accessories. The sound processor converts sounds into electrical signals, which it sends, via a coil, to an implant to provide hearing sensation. The application of hearing aid technologies to Cochlear Implant recipients may provide benefit through matching the signal processing technologies across ears for bimodal listeners, enhance performance for CI-alone listening, and potentially lead to efficiency in algorithm development.
