Virtual reality tested to sharpen hearing for implant users

NCT ID NCT04078763

Summary

This study tested whether a new virtual reality training program could help adults who use two cochlear implants. The goal was to see if practice with visual or combined audio-visual feedback could improve their ability to tell where sounds are coming from in space. Twelve participants completed up to eight training sessions to see if their sound-location skills got better.
