Otoferlin Gene-mediated Hearing Loss Natural History Study
This is a retrospective and prospective longitudinal study in participants with Otoferlin Gene-Mediated Hearing Loss.
Rare Disease Patient Registry & Natural History Study - Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford
CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures …
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 …
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 …
Validation of a Swiss German Language Test for Children
The aim of this study is to validate a Swiss German children's language test. Standard values for the speech intelligibility of Swiss German monosyllables and disyllables for children with normal hearing aged 4-6 years are recorded.
Impact of Interscalenous Block Anesthesia on Hearing
Interscalene brachial plexus block (ISBPB) is used frequently in shoulder, clavicle and upper arm surgeries to obtain analgesia in the postoperative period. Our primary aim in this study is to evaluate if interscalene block anesthesia has an effect on hearing levels of patients undergoing orthopedic shoulder surgeries.
Quantification of Visually Evoked Cortical Potentials in Individuals With Hearing Loss
This research is being done to determine whether a test that measures a "Visual Evoked Potential" can be used in a new way for individuals that have hearing loss. This test measures the participant's brain's response (so called "brain waves") to specific visual images. This study will help the investigators …
Understanding the Consequences of Recreational Noise Exposure
The aim of this study is to determine whether measures derived from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans, and clinical and behavioural measures of hearing loss, in the peripheral and central auditory system (ranging from the cochlear nerve through the auditory brainstem to the auditory cortex) are associated with age and …
Automated Measures of Speech Intelligibility Using Brain Wave Recordings
Hearing loss is one of the most prevalent impairments in the world. The World Health Organization estimates that as of 2020, around 466 million people worldwide are affected by disabling hearing loss, of which 34 million are children. Without appropriate diagnosis and treatment, hearing impairment can cause difficulties with communication, …
Validation Of The Flemish Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) For Persons With Hearing Impairment
The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a screening test for detecting cognitive impairment that assesses several cognitive domains (attention and concentration, arithmetic and orientation, memory, etc.). The instructions as well as some test items of the MoCA are presented auditory (spoken). Consequently, performance on the MoCA may be co-dependent on …
