Summary

This trial aims to see if using artificial intelligence to reduce background noise can help people with hearing loss hear and understand speech better.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with hearing impairment, whether they are new to using hearing aids or currently use them. It also includes those who have a cochlear implant in one ear and use a hearing aid in the other. People already satisfied with their current hearing aids or unable to follow the study protocol may not qualify.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing DEEPSONIC™, an AI-based noise reduction technology integrated into Phonak Hearing Aids. The goal is to see if this advanced feature can improve speech understanding and overall hearing in noisy environments compared to standard models.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves non-invasive technology within hearing aids, side effects are minimal but could include discomfort from wearing the device, potential auditory fatigue or headaches from initial adjustment periods.
