MeasurIng and Restoring Auditory Awareness for Cochlear Implant Listeners in noisE
- Conditions
- Cochlear Hearing Loss
- Interventions
- Behavioral: Speech in noise comprehension testBehavioral: Objective tests of perception of ambient sound cues in noiseBehavioral: Subjective tests of perception of ambient sound cues in noise
- Registration Number
- NCT06420921
- Lead Sponsor
- Institut Pasteur
- Brief Summary
The goal of this interventional study is to describe how people with cochlear implants perceive the perceive speech in noise and their sound environment on adults who are native French speakers with typical hearing or with cochlear implant(s).
The measures and strategies developed in this project could benefit all current and future cochlear implant wearers by improving their perception of the sound environment and their quality of life on a daily basis.
Researchers will compare normal hearing participant and participants with cochlear implant to describe the speech in noise and their perception of the sound environment.
Participants will perform audiological tests to assess their perception of the sound environment, with and without speech enhancement.
