Collection of Clinical Data and Specimens for Research in Hearing, Balance, Taste, Smell, Voice, Speech, and Language Disorders.
Background People with hearing, balance, and taste, smell, voice, speech, language, and other Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) disorders may seek treatment at the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD). Some of these people may benefit from enrolling in the NIDCD intramural research program to receive their …
Natural History of Autosomal Dominant Hearing Loss
Background Hereditary hearing loss is one of the most common sensory disabilities affecting newborns. The main options for people with hereditary hearing loss are hearing aids and cochlear implants. Both options have their limitations and do not restore biological hearing. Researchers want to learn if gene editing might be a …
Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Wonju Severance Christian Hospital
This study is to build a cohort of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) patients. When the patient visited the Department of otolaryngology clinic for hearing loss, we can diagnose the SSNHL following the result of pure tone audiometry and the history of the patient.

Otoferlin Gene-mediated Hearing Loss Natural History Study
This is a retrospective and prospective longitudinal study in participants with Otoferlin Gene-Mediated Hearing Loss.
Investigation of Anatomical Correlates of Speech Discrimination
Understanding speech is essential for good communication. Individuals with hearing loss and poor speech discrimination often have little success with hearing aids because amplifying sound improves audibility, but not clarity of the speech signal. The purpose of this study is to determine the relative importance of the sensory cells of …
Long-Term Outcomes of Children With Congenital CMV in New York State
PROACTIVE NYS is a long-term follow-up study of all infants who test positive for congenital Cytomegalovirus infection (CMV) throughout New York State on the Newborn Screen. By following all infants who screen positive, we will learn important information about the range of symptoms caused by congenital CMV, from those babies …
Safe Brain Initiative, Operationalizing Precision Anaesthesia
Perioperatively, patients experience an unnecessarily high level of side effects associated with their treatment. These side effects include nausea, severe pain, anxiety, and stress. Moreover, many patients develop postoperative delirium (POD) and neurocognitive dysfunctions, often resulting in long-term cognitive impairment, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality. However, physicians, nurses …
Three-dimensional Perception of Sounds in Military With Acoustic Trauma
Spatial hearing capacities of soldiers with acoustic trauma are evaluated in ENT consultations with routine tests (i.e. tonal audiometry, voice audiometry). While the results conclude that soldiers with acoustic trauma have sufficient abilities to carry out professional missions, soldiers report recurring complaints of sound localization (spatial hearing), i.e. difficulties in …
MED-EL HEARING SOLUTIONS (MEHS): AN OBSERVATIONAL STUDY
This Registry represents a non-interventional systematic collection of clinical data in which prospective data from children and adults are collected as fully anonymized data sets, derived from original clinical records on appropriately informed subjects. This is a patient-outcomes Registry for subjects of any age who are provided in routine clinical …
