What this Trial Is About
The aim of this clinical study is to investigate whether six months of music therapy immediately after CI implantation helps to improve speech intelligibility in noise. To investigate the effect of music therapy, a randomized study will be conducted with a "start group A" and a "delayed group" B (control group 1). Group A will start six months of music therapy immediately after cochlear implantation, group B six months later. A further control group 2 will not receive any music therapy. The speech intelligibility values resulting from the OLSA sentence test will be compared between the three groups after six and twelve months.
