Hearing Aids for Sensorineural Hearing Loss
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
The purpose of this study is to use an optimized version of the SEDA algorithm (SEDA-HA) for hearing aids to evaluate the benefit for listeners with varying degrees of hearing loss in realistic environments and evaluate its impact on speech perception and sound quality. The primary objective is to evaluate performance with and without the SEDA-HA algorithm on speech perception and speech reception tasks. The secondary objective is to evaluate performance of and experience with SEDA-HA integrated into a portable hearing aid prototype in the laboratory and in real-world situations outside the laboratory.

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?
Trial Overview
The study is testing a new speech enhancement algorithm (SEDA-HA) built into a prototype hearing aid. It compares how well users understand speech and perceive sound quality with and without this technology, both indoors and outdoors.
How Is the Trial Designed?

Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Speech reception and speech perception will be measured in the presence of various types of background noise with and without the use of the SEDA-HA algorithm. Only participants ages 18 and older in this group will have the option to evaluate SEDA-HA integrated into a portable hearing aid prototype in a take-home trial.
