Testing a new hearing test for early music listening
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study compares a new hearing test based on music to the standard tone-based hearing test. It could help find a more natural way to measure hearing loss in people who already have stable hearing loss in both ears.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 7 and 45 years old.
- You have hearing loss in both ears that has been stable (not changing).
- Your hearing loss is at least moderate in your better ear, based on pure-tone testing.
- You can reliably do a standard hearing test by raising your hand or pressing a button.
- You do not have auditory processing disorder or auditory neuropathy.

This study looks at how differences in hearing between your ears affect your ability to hear in noisy places. Researchers want to learn more across different ages.
This study tests new features on hearing aids to see if they help people hear better. It is for adults with a specific type of hearing loss who already use hearing aids.
This trial tests ways to make music sound better for people who wear hearing aids. If you are unhappy with how music sounds through your hearing aids, you may be able to help researchers find better settings.
This trial tests if a portable hearing device using active noise-canceling headphones can accurately measure hearing. It might help by making hearing tests more convenient and accessible.
This research study tests a new way to measure how well your middle ear (the tiny bones behind your eardrum) works using sound waves instead of traditional hearing tests. It involves three groups: people with normal hearing, people with conductive hearing loss, and people scheduled for cochlear implant surgery.
This study is developing a set of hearing tests to more precisely identify age-related hearing loss. It may help you (or the study team) better understand what type of hearing problem you have and how to guide next steps.
