Evaluation of Remote Programming of Cochlear Implants in Routine Cochlear Implant Follow-up

This is a prospective and monocentric clinical investigation, non-interventional and non-randomized. The overall goal of this clinical study is to generate additional clinical data confirming the safety and efficacy of the remote programming functionality of Target CI version 1.5 and the AB Remote Support app. Hearing outcomes are expected to be similar whether a study subject's sound processor is programmed in the traditional method in the audiologist's office or whether programming is performed via remote fitting. Therefore, the study uses a non-inferiority design to determine whether sentence recognition in noise is no worse with remote fitting than in an in-office setting.
