Assessing Speech Perception and Amplification Benefit During Infancy
The goal of this project is to compare aided and unaided speech discrimination among infants with hearing loss and a cohort of infants with typical hearing. Working Hypothesis: Among this group of infants with hearing loss, performance will be significantly better when infants are tested while using amplification (i.e., aided …
Sound Ear Check (SEC) in Hearing Diagnostics in Young Children
Study Sound Ear Check (SEC) hearing test among 3-10 years old otherwise healthy children referred to tympanostomy tube placement. SEC test prior surgery (with middle ear fluid) and at 1 month control visit (dry middle ear with ventilation tube). Otitis media 6 questionnaire prior surgery and at the 1 month …
The Effects on Auditory Function of RADiotherapy and Chemotherapy Treatments for Head and Neck Tumours (EARAD)
Radiotherapy and combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy are used to treat most tumours in the head and neck region. Unfortunately, these treatments often result in hearing loss and tinnitus that has a negative impact on quality of life. This study will use a battery of sensitive tests, including measures of hair …
A Comparative Analysis of Speech Perception Between Cochlear Implant Patients and DFNB9 Patients Receiving Gene Therapy
This cohort study aims to explore the trends and differences in multidimensional perceptual levels of patients after cochlear implants or gene therapy, as well as to comprehensively assess the efficacy of gene therapy for congenital deafness, thus providing a reference for making a well-rounded postoperative rehabilitation protocol for gene therapy …
RBANS-H in Older Patients Before and After Cochlear Implantation: A Protocol for a Prospective Study
The cognitive profile of older adults with a severe to profound hearing impairment is determined by means of the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status, adjusted for Hearing impaired subjects (RBANS-H) before and after cochlear implantation. In this prospective, longitudinal study the participants are tested preoperatively, at six …
Otoferlin Patient Registry and Natural History Study
This registry is designed to collect comprehensive information about the molecular genetic diagnoses of individuals with otoferlin-associated hearing impairment and clinical information to support a natural history study.
Role of Diffusion Tensor-magnetic Resonance Imaging in Investigating Sensorineural Hearing Loss
DTI and auditory tractography can be incorporated into the diagnostic toolkit for patients who are scheduled to undergo cochlear implantation and whose standard assessments have been unable to determine the functional integrity of the auditory pathway. These techniques aid in decision-making processes regarding potential outcomes, determining the optimal side for …
PMCF on Safety and Performance of HiResTM Ultra/Ultra 3D Cl Mid-Scala Electrodes in Adults With Severe-to-profound Hearing Loss
This is a prospective study designed to evaluate the safety and performance of the HiResTM Ultra Cl HiFocusTM MS Electrode and HiResTM Ultra 3D Cl HiFocusTM MS Electrode (Ultra X) under normal conditions of use as it is approved for this device.
Predictive Study on Hearing Rehabilitation After Cochlear Implant
The aim of this study is to display the predictive factors of hearing rehabilitation after cochlear implant surgery in severely to profoundly deaf adults.
Wolfram Syndrome and WFS1-related Disorders International Registry and Clinical Study
In this study, the investigators hypothesize that studying monogenic variants with strong effect associated with severe insulin deficiency of Wolfram syndrome will provide important insights into the more complex type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Aim 1. Establish and maintain a registry of patients with Wolfram syndrome. An Internet …
