Overview
Brief Summary
Acceptance and performance of the CP1170 sound processor in experienced adult cochlear implant recipients compared with the CP1150 sound processor and their current sound processor.
Detailed Description
This investigation is planned to investigate the performance and clinical benefits of features that are new to the CP1170 Sound Processor. This study will build on the evidence previously collected on off-the-ear (OTE) sound processors and ForwardFocus, with particular focus on the acceptance and satisfaction of the automation of ForwardFocus in the CP1170 Sound Processor and associated components in general.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Paired Difference in dB SRT Between the CP1170 SCAN 2 FF (Automated ForwardFocus ON) and CP1170 SCAN 2 (ForwardFocus OFF) in 65 dB SPL (Sound Pressure Level) S0Nrearhalf 4Talker Babble (Speech Perception in Noise)
Time Frame: During a Single Ad-Hoc Visit (between Day 141 - Day 218)
Speech perception in noise was measured using the Australian Speech Test In Noise (AUSTIN), which is a test that uses Bamford-Kowal-Bench (BKB)-like target sentences presented in adaptive noise. The goal of the speech perception test in noise was to provide the speech-to-noise ratio for 50% speech intelligibility.
Secondary Outcomes
- Paired Difference in Percentage CNC (Consonant-nucleus-consonant) Words Correct in Quiet (50 dB) Between the CP1170 Sound Processor and CP1150 Sound Processor (Commercial Version)(During Ad-Hoc Visit (anytime between Day 127 - Day 190))
- Subjective Acceptance and Satisfaction Between the CP1170 Sound Processor and the Subject's Own Processor(2 weeks)
- Paired Difference in dB SRT Between the CP1170 SCAN 2 FF (Automated ForwardFocus ON) and CP1170 SCAN 2 (ForwardFocus OFF) in 65 dB SPL S0N3 Babble (Speech Perception in Noise)(During a single Ad-Hoc Visit (anytime between Day 141 - Day 218))
- Paired Difference in Global SSQ12 Scores After Experience With the CP1170 Sound Processor and Own Processor(During a Single Ad-Hoc Visit (anytime between Day 23 - Day 70))
