Hearing assessments for clinical trials

Make participant hearing safety part of your clinical trials
We understand the important role participant safety plays in clinical trials. These trials drive medical innovation, and breakthroughs that can improve care and patient outcomes.
Some therapeutics, however, can cause hearing loss. This is known as ototoxicity.
Without proper monitoring, this can compromise both participant safety and the integrity of your study’s results. That’s why we offer solutions developed to integrate hearing safety into your trial processes, helping you to ensure comprehensive care and accurate outcomes.
