Evaluating the Clinical Effectiveness of a Community-based Hearing Aid Fitting Service Delivery Model Facilitated by Community Healthcare Workers (CHWs) Providing Smartphone-based In-situ and Pre-set Hearing Aid Fittings in Low- and Middle-income Communities (LMICs)
The purpose of this study is to advance hearing care in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) through the rigorous evaluation and optimization of innovative interventions and technologies. This study encompasses the following key aim: This study aims to establish the effectiveness of community-based hearing aid fittings facilitated by community healthcare …
An Investigation to Validate Speech Perception Assessment for Adult Cochlear Recipients Using a Mobile Research App
The study is a feasibility, prospective, repeated-measures, multi-country, multi-centre, study of the Mobile Research App to measure and validate speech perception endpoints in adult cochlear implant recipients.
AI Noise Reduction in Phonak Hearing Aids
The purpose of this study is to determine if artificial intelligence- based noise reduction can offer objective improvement in hearing and speech perception for hearing impaired patients.
Fundamental and Clinical Study of Cochlear Synaptopathy
In humans, surface electrophysiological recording of the cochlear nerve in response to a sound stimulus provides information about the integrity and function of synapses (synaptic transmission) and nerve fibre function. However, this information remains global. The investigators have preliminary data showing that it is possible to extract and characterise the …
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 …
Coding of Speech Signals in the Human Auditory Nerve
The fine evaluation of the function of auditory neurons in silence and in noise in humans is difficult, if not impossible, to date with the conventional methods available. That is why in certain situations, the hearing aids of patient with hearing loss fail, especially in the presence of noise. In …
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 …
Innovations in Hearing Accessibility and Technology (IHAT) Study
The research will explore outcomes of different service delivery models of over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids by comparing them to prescription hearing aids fitted by specialists in individuals with mild to moderate hearing loss. The investigators will examine how each type affects users' experiences, behavior, thinking skills, and brain activity related …
