4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Experimental Anatomy-Based Fitting 2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
The audio processor frequency setting will be programmed with experimental settings for anatomy-based fitting using individual anatomical information obtained from analysis of post-operative imaging.
Group II: Experimental Anatomy-Based Fitting 1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
The audio processor frequency setting will be programmed using experimental settings for anatomy-based fitting using individual anatomical information obtained from analysis of post-operative imaging.
Group III: Default Clinical Frequency SettingActive Control1 Intervention
The audio processor frequency setting will be programmed based on current frequency defaults in the clinical programming software
Group IV: Default Anatomy-Based FittingActive Control1 Intervention
The audio processor frequency setting will be programmed based on current anatomy-based fitting frequency defaults in the clinical programming software
