Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
Main objective: For a bimodal fitting (hearing aid (HA) + cochlear implant (CI)): Comparison of a tonotopy based fitting strategy (TFS4) to a default fitting strategy (FS4) for the speech recognition in noise. Secondary objectives: Comparison of TFS4 to FS4 for speech recognition in quiet. Comparison of TFS4 to FS4 for the auditory skills experienced by the subject.
