Hearing and Structure Preservation Via ECochG
The goal of the study is to determine the benefit of using an ECochG-based corrective action guide during cochlear implant surgery compared to the traditional surgical approach without ECochG surveillance and guidance.
Oral Statins and Protection From Hearing Loss
A small clinical trial for idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL). Will the addition of an oral statin to the standard treatment (oral methylprednesolone and the salvage therapy of intratympanic dexamethasone) improve the treatment outcome for patients with ISSNHL? This study will compare the two treatments and quantitatively evaluate hearing …
Comparative Study of Inclined Treadmill and Dynamic Cycling on Balace in Hearing Impaired Children.
Hearing loss is generally identified initially in life leading to difficulties in communication. In children, vestibular dysfunctions can cause a deficit in gross motor development and balance stability. At an early age, delayed gross motor development can cause impairment in the bilateral vestibular system and sensorineural hearing. The children with …
Benefits of Choir for Older Adults with Unaddressed Hearing Loss (WP2)
Unaddressed age-related hearing loss is highly prevalent among older adults, typified by negative consequences for speech-in-noise perception and psychosocial wellbeing. There is promising evidence that group singing may enhance speech-in-noise perception and psychosocial wellbeing. However, there is a lack of robust evidence, primarily due to the literature being based on …
Comparison of the Effectiveness of Oral and Intratympanic Corticosteroid Treatments in Patients Diagnosed With Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which one works to treat better in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss, oral or intratympanic corticosteroid treatment. The main question it aims to answer is: Which corticosteroid treatment is more effective in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss, oral or …
Real-time Artificial Intelligence-based Speech Enhancement Methods for Hearing Aid Improvement
Individuals with Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorders (ANSD) represent 1-10% of adults with hearing loss. These individuals have little or no benefit from current hearing aids because ANSD is a continuum of hearing impairments due to synaptic or neural dysfunction in the peripheral and central parts of the auditory pathways, which …
Intracochlear Platelet-rich Fibrin Application in Cochlear Implantation
Fibrosis due to surgical trauma is a common problem with cochlear implants. Fibrosis limits the effectiveness of implant and increases the power consumption. Our aim in this study is to benefit from the anti-inflammatory effects of autologous platelet-rich fibrin to reducing the fibrotic cascade.
A Study to Explore Improved Features and a Simplified Treatment Approach for a Totally Implantable Cochlear Implant (TICI) Research System in Adults with Severe Hearing Loss
This clinical study will test a new investigational totally implanted cochlear implant system (TICI G2). The cochlear implant has an implantable microphone under the skin to detect speech and sound from the environment allowing hearing without the need of any external parts. This study will explore new ways to process …
Benefits of Bimodal Streaming With MED-EL Cochlear Implants and Starkey Hearing Aids
This study will evaluate sound quality and user satisfaction with Bluetooth streaming using a new bimodal streaming option for individuals who use a MED-EL cochlear implant and Starkey hearing aid.
Self-efficacy-based Auditory Rehabilitation With Over-the-Counter Hearing Aids
This goal of this study is to learn if a new audiology treatment process called the self-efficacy-based auditory rehabilitation (SEBAR) can improve confidence and success with over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the SEBAR improve participants' confidence related to managing their over-the-counter hearing …
