Comparison of the New Fitting Method Cochlear Nucleus Fitting Software (NFS) With the Established Fitting Method Cochlear Nucleus Custom SoundTM Suite (CSS)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the new and simplified fitting method with Cochlear Nucleus Fitting Software (a major component of a suite of tools which form the Clinical Care Innovation) provides Cochlear Implants Recipients with the same hearing outcome as the current and established clinical fitting method with Cochlear Nucleus Custom SoundTM Suite. The Clinical Care Innovation method reduces fitting to simple volume, bass and trebles adjustments, operations which are familiar to anyone who has used an audio player.
