Music training for cochlear implant users
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study tests a music training program (Meludia) to see if it helps people with cochlear implants improve their hearing. It is open to new and experienced implant users of MED-EL devices.

This study looks at how well cochlear implant users do musical and voice skills, including children and adults who use one or two implants. You might benefit by helping researchers understand how these skills develop and how devices work over time.
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 looks at how programming a cochlear implant based on your inner ear's shape may improve early hearing performance. It is for adults who already have or will get a MED-EL cochlear implant and have some hearing in the opposite ear.
This study looks at how people perceive musical pitch and how that relates to memory, and whether training can improve performance. It may help researchers learn why some people struggle with pitch-related tasks and what kinds of training work best.
This study tests whether practicing listening exercises on a computer can help adults who just got a cochlear implant understand speech better and feel more satisfied with their hearing. If you are getting a cochlear implant at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, you might be able to join.
This trial studies whether a structured auditory (hearing) and cognitive (thinking) training program can improve outcomes for adults who use cochlear implants. It’s designed for people at a certain stage after their implant and with specific hearing and thinking test results.
