EARLY DETECTION OF DEAFNESS IN A MEMORY CENTER
DEAFNESS SCREENING IN A MEMORY CENTER IN SUBJECTS WITH COGNITIVE DISORDERS
University Hospital, Lille
200 participants
May 27, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL), like neurodegenerative diseases, appears insidiously with age. As major public health issues, they are nonetheless under-diagnosed because the presence of one can hinder the objectification of the other. The CogAudio project aims to detect early and in an ambulatory mode in a memory centre a speech perception disorder in noise thanks to the VRB test in patients weakened by cognitive disorders.

Interventions
V1 (inclusion) : VRB test for detecting speech comprehension disorders in noise.
