This study looks at how to detect hearing loss early in people with mild to moderate memory problems. It may help understand if hearing issues affect thinking skills.
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.
This trial studies how hearing relates to early memory and movement problems in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. It may help find new ways to detect and track these conditions.
This study tests whether hearing aids can help people with both hearing loss and early memory problems. It lasts for a period of time, and you will be asked to wear hearing aids daily.
This study is developing a system to evaluate and improve hearing for people with congenital hearing loss. It compares participants who have hearing loss (and have used hearing aids, cochlear implants, or gene therapy) with healthy controls, to better understand and treat hearing challenges.
This study is for adults 60 and older who have hearing loss but do not yet use hearing aids. You will work with a trained peer mentor (another older adult) to get affordable, accessible hearing care and support.
