Assessment of a Method to Improve Cochlear Implant Users' Speech Perception in Noisy Environments While Maintaining Their Ability to Determine Where a Sound Originates From

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cochlear Implant Users

In brief

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if a new algorithm can improve speech perception for cochlear implant users. The main questions it aims to answer \[is/are\]: * Does the algorithm improve speech perception in noisy environments? * Does the algorithm allow listeners to determine where a sound is coming from? Participants will * Listen to and repeat sentences presented in the presence of noise * Indicate the location that sounds originated from
