Summary

This study tests whether a new AI-based noise reduction feature in Phonak hearing aids helps people with hearing loss or cochlear implants hear speech more clearly in noisy settings. Researchers will measure how well 500 participants repeat words and sentences in quiet and noisy environments. The goal is to see if the AI technology offers real, noticeable improvement in everyday listening situations.
