CI Spatial Orientation Study

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cochlear Implants, Spatial Orientation

In brief

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if cochlear implant activation affects spatial orientation in cochlear implant users. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are\]: * Does activation of the cochlear implant improve spatial orientation? * Is this improvement caused by better hearing ability through the cochlear implant? Participants will: * Take an online survey including questions about their cochlear implants and clinical questionnaires on dizziness and spatial orientation * Undergo balance and spatial orientation tests under different cochlear implant conditions.
