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 …
Vestibular and Postural Function in an Unselected Group of Children With Sensorineural Hearing Loss
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to investigate the vestibular function in children with unilateral or bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. The main hypothesis of the study is that abnormal vestibular test results will be found in 20-30 % of the children with sensorineural hearing loss. The participants will …
The Contributions of Age Related Changes in the Sound Localization Pathway to Central Hearing Loss
Age-related hearing loss, presbycusis, affects up to 50% of American adults. There are two main causes for presbycusis: 1) Progressive death of hair cells in the inner ear, and 2) Central hearing loss, or the reduced ability to decipher the sound source of interest from other competing sounds in a …
Investigating the Relationship Between Temporal Bone CT, Bone Density, and Hearing Loss in Otosclerosis Patients
The goal of this observational case-control study is to evaluate the relationship between temporal bone computed tomography (CT) findings, bone mineral density (BMD), and audiological parameters in adults diagnosed with otosclerosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a correlation between temporal bone CT density values and …
Long-term Follow-up of a Cochlear Implant With Dexamethasone Eluting Electrode Array
A long-term follow-up of Cochlear's cochlear implant electrode array which passively elutes dexamethasone for a defined period of time to help reduce inflammatory responses.
Evaluation of Remote Programming of Cochlear Implants in Routine Cochlear Implant Follow-up
This is a prospective and monocentric clinical investigation, non-interventional and non-randomized. The overall goal of this clinical study is to generate additional clinical data confirming the safety and efficacy of the remote programming functionality of Target CI version 1.5 and the AB Remote Support app. Hearing outcomes are expected to …
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.
Status Telemetry for Cochlear Implantations
Cochlear implants (CIs) are well-established neuroprosthesis used to restore hearing for patients with partial or complete deafness. However, the audiological outcomes of these implants can vary widely, and one reason for this is suboptimal electrode placement. The gold standard for measuring electrode positions is computed tomography (CT) scans, but they …
Retrospective Analysis of Speech Performance Using the HiRes Ultra and HiRes Ultra 3D Cochlear Implant
This is a retrospective study designed to collect speech perception results for HiRes Ultra CI and HiRes Ultra 3D CI users as measured in the clinical routine and to confirm the performance of these devices.
Retrospective Analysis of Long-term Speech Performance in Cochlear Implant Recipients Using Electro-acoustic Stimulation
This is a retrospective study designed to collect long-term speech perception results for cochlear implants recipients using electro-acoustic-stimulation as measured in the clinical routine and to confirm the performance of sound processors associated with acoustic earhooks.
