Listening fatigue is a common experience for hearing aid and hearing implant users. It occurs when it’s necessary to listen to speech for long periods in difficult listening situations: background noise, echo, multiple people talking at the same time, a lack of lip-reading cues. Listening in such environments requires more effort because the listener has to fill in the gaps in the auditory message that they miss due to the noise. This increased listening effort can lead to listening fatigue.

Hearing loss in older adults can have a big impact on daily life and overall wellbeing if left untreated. If you have severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss, a cochlear implant may be able to provide you with access to sound. And auditory training can help you get the most from your hearing implant.
If you have received a cochlear implant, you will know that completing auditory rehabilitation is necessary to develop your listening abilities and to get the most from your device. Being able to understand complex auditory information, such as speech with a cochlear implant, takes time and rehabilitation practice as your brain becomes accustomed to and learns to process auditory stimuli from your hearing implant.
