NCT ID NCT05552118

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether managing cochlear implant care remotely (via phone or app) works as well as going to the clinic. About 148 adults with hearing loss will be followed for a year after their implant is activated. The goal is to see if remote care saves time and money while keeping hearing improvement on track.
