Skip the clinic: can a hearing check app replace In-Person visits?
NCT ID NCT05973669
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether people with a MED-EL cochlear implant can use a smartphone app to check their hearing from home instead of going to the clinic. About 50 participants will try the remote check and report how well it works, how much time and money it saves, and how easy it is to use. The goal is to see if remote care is a practical option for routine hearing checks.
