Improving hearing in noise for people with two cochlear implants
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to help people with cochlear implants hear speech better in noisy places, while still being able to tell where sounds come from. It compares different sound processing strategies to find the best one for daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a cochlear implant in each ear (bilateral implants).
- Your implants must be made by either Cochlear or Advanced Bionics.
- You must be a native English speaker (English is your first language).

This trial looks at how hearing with both ears helps children with cochlear implants listen more easily and think better. It compares kids with implants to those with normal hearing.
This study tests how well people with two cochlear implants (or one cochlear implant and one hearing ear) can hear in complex, noisy settings. It aims to improve how these devices help in everyday listening situations.
This study tests how people focus on sounds in noisy situations, comparing those with normal hearing and those with cochlear implants. It aims to better understand how the brain processes sound, which could improve hearing technology.
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 aims to improve how cochlear implants are programmed by using information about the inner ear. It may help you hear better if you already use an Advanced Bionics cochlear implant.
