SPI-1005 in Adults Receiving Cochlear Implant
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of drug SPI-1005 in adults receiving a cochlear implant with a long electrode array (FLEX26 or greater) from MED-EL Cochlear Implant Systems into one ear. The main question this clinical trial aims to answer is: Is drug SPI-1005 …
Investigation of Sky Automatic Technologies in Pediatrics
The hypothesis of this research is that the AS Target setting provides the best estimate of the settings required to optimize listening in noise. As such, it is expected that speech in noise performance will be best in the AS Target condition, followed by the AS Clinic condition, and the …
Intracochlear Application of VSF1.01 for the Reduction of Cochlear Implant Surgery Related Trauma
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety of intracochlear application of VSF1.01 for the reduction of cochlear implant surgery related trauma in patients with profound hearing loss with or without non-functional residual hearing in low frequencies and cochlear implantation. The main questions it aims to answer …
ENACT Program on Auditory Perception and Function, Cognitive Function and Health-related Quality of Life
Although previous studies indicated that tackling hearing loss may have a secondary benefit in improving cognitive function and delaying the onset of dementia, a more integrated care approach to optimize both hearing and cognitive function may be needed for individuals who already developed cognitive decline. To address the dual care …
Testing the Addition of Pedmark to Cisplatin Chemotherapy for Reducing Drug-Induced Ear Damage in Men With Stage II-III Metastatic Testicular Germ Cell Tumors
This phase I trial evaluates whether adding Pedmark to standard of care cisplatin-based chemotherapy reduces drug-induced ear damage (ototoxicity) in men with stage II-III testicular germ cell tumors that have spread from where they first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Cisplatin is in a class …
Efficacy and Effectiveness of an Investigational Behind-the-Ear Hearing Device Kit
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Sonova's rechargeable behind-the-ear hearing device kit works to treat hearing loss in adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the rechargeable behind-the-ear hearing device kit address challenging listening situations identified by participants while providing a satisfactory user …
Extra-cochlear Electrode Placement at the Post-auricular Vagus Nerve in Cochlear Implantation
This study will evaluate hearing outcomes after cochlear implantation with placement of the ECE1 ground electrode near the post-auricular vagus nerve (Arnold's nerve) to assess non-inferiority with respect to placement under the temporalis muscle.
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 …
Listening Effort in Cochlear Implant Users
People with hearing loss experience extra effort when listening, which can lead to severe psychological barriers to communication and social participation. Listening effort can lead to fatigue, mental strain, burnout, medical sick leave, and the need for increased time to recover from regular daily activities. This proposal aims to understand …
BEARS Training Package to Maximise Hearing Abilities in Older Children and Teenagers With Bilateral Cochlear Implants
The goal of the BEARS clinical trial is to determine whether using the directional listening training delivered via the BEARS training package for 3-months alongside usual care compared to only receiving usual care improves speech-in-noise perception, hearing experiences, vocabulary and quality of life and reduces listening effort in young people …
