Remote cochlear implant tuning: just as good as In-Person?
NCT ID NCT06894303
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether programming a cochlear implant from home works as well as doing it in the clinic. About 51 adults with hearing loss will have their device adjusted both remotely and in-office to compare hearing test results. The goal is to see if remote programming is a safe and effective option for routine follow-up care.
