Clinical trials: Speech Intelligibility
Speech Intelligibility in Noise
Study of a Signal-processing Algorithm Aiming at Improving Speech-in-noise Intelligibility in Normal-hearing and Hearing-impaired Persons
Nearly half a billion people suffer from disabling hearing loss. The most common form of hearing loss in adults is age-related hearing loss (ARHL), which causes a reduced ability to understand speech in noisy environments.
- Trial name
- AUDIOCAP 1 (NCT04775810)
- Testing
- The device is an algorithm designed to enhance speech intelligibility of speech-in-noise signals
