Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in aided audiometric threshold testing between standard and experimental replacement procedures

    Aided audiometric test measures: threshold testing. Thresholds will be measured in decibels Hearing Level (dBHL), with a range of -10 - 120 dBHL. Lower scores indicate better performance. Change in scores will be assessed between standard and experimental replacement procedures.

    Baseline, during intervention, immediately after intervention

  • Change in aided speech-in-noise testing between standard and experimental replacement procedures

    Aided audiometric test measures: speech-in-noise testing. Scores will be measured using signal-to-noise ratio loss, with scores ranging from 0 - 25.5. Lower scores indicate better performance. Change in scores will be assessed between standard and experimental replacement procedures.

    Baseline, during intervention, immediately after intervention

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in incidence of medical referrals secondary to device replacement procedure-related ear health outcome between standard and experimental replacement procedures

    Through study completion, an average of 5 months

Other Outcomes (3)

  • Change in incidence of provider/clinical support needed across device replacement procedures

    Through study completion, an average of 5 months

  • Change in incidence of acoustic feedback across device replacement procedures

    Baseline, during intervention, immediately after intervention

  • Change in measured device position at replacement between standard and experimental replacement procedures

    Baseline, during intervention, immediately after intervention

Study Arms (1)

Lyric self-replacement

EXPERIMENTAL

This cohort of experienced Lyric patients are required to meet the candidacy criteria to be eligible for the self-replacement procedure. They will also be required to demonstrate proficiency with the self-replacement procedure before proceeding with independent self-replacement.

Device: Phonak Lyric self-replacement procedure

Interventions

The self-replacement procedure is an experimental procedure in which the Lyric user replaces the Lyric devices independently at every other device replacement, using dedicated candidacy, training, and management procedures, conducted by and at the discretion of his/her hearing care provider (HCP).

Eligibility Criteria

Age22 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Meets requirements outlined on Lyric self-replacement candidacy form
  • Current Lyric hearing instrument user with 3+ months of Lyric experience
  • years of age or older at the time of enrollment in the study
  • Mild-to-moderately severe sensorineural hearing loss (bilaterally or unilaterally)
  • Good understanding (read/write/speak) of the English language
