Test how much effort listening takes with cochlear implants
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study measures how your brain and eyes respond when you listen and focus on sounds. It compares people using a cochlear implant with people who have normal hearing, to understand listening effort and attention.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 18 to 80
- Speak French as your main language
- If you have a cochlear implant: use an Oticon Medical implant for at least 6 months
- If you have a cochlear implant: your hearing test results should show you can recognize some words in quiet, but not too well in the non-implanted ear
- If you have normal hearing: your hearing test must be normal for your age

This study tests if a cochlear implant fitting based on your ear's anatomy helps you hear speech in noisy places and enjoy music more. It is for people who are deaf in one ear and use a MED-EL cochlear implant.
This study compares blood and fluid-related immune “profiles” after cochlear implant surgery versus another ear/middle-ear surgery group. It aims to learn which immune signals may be linked to hearing outcomes and recovery after implantation.
This study tests a new way to help cochlear implant users hear better in noisy places. It compares their ability to hear speech in noise with people who have normal hearing.
This study looks at how people with hearing aids perceive sound. It compares results between hearing-impaired and normal-hearing participants to better understand hearing challenges in daily life.
This study tests a method to set cochlear implant sound levels using a small reflex in the ear. It may help doctors find the best sound settings for users aged 8-17.
This study measures how much effort it takes to listen and understand speech for adults with cochlear implants compared to those with normal hearing. It can help researchers learn how to improve hearing outcomes.
