Filter by: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.
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.
This study investigates a newly developed test, The CochSyn test that can quantify cochlear synaptopathy (CS) (a new type of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL)) earlier than the current golden standard pure-tone audiogram.This newly developed test is based on auditory evoked brain potentials. A hardware prototype (the Cochsyn test prototype) was developed to use the Cochsyn test in clinical practice. Additionally a CS-based sound-processing algorithm (CoNNear) that is designed to improve speech intelligibility in subjects that are identified to have CS, will be investigated in this study.
The Cochlear Implant - Quality of Life (CIQoL) PROM is a quality-of-life assessment questionnaire for adults with cochlear implants. The CIQoL responds to an important need for a questionnaire that captures the benefits of cochlear implantation as perceived by patients and that can be used in clinical practice.
Patients with hearing loss who use cochlear implants (CIs) show significant deficits and strong unexplained intersubject variability in their perception and production of spoken emotions in speech. This project will investigate the hypothesis that "cue-weighting", or how patients utilize the different acoustic cues to emotion, accounts for significant variance in emotional communication with CIs. The results will focus on children with CIs, but parallel measures in postlingually deaf adults with CIs will be made, ensuring that results of these studies benefit social communication by CI patients across the lifespan by informing the development of technological innovations and improved clinical protocols.
This is a prospective study designed to evaluate the safety and performance of the HiResTM Ultra Cl HiFocusTM SlimJ Electrode and HiResTM Ultra 3D Cl HiFocusTM SlimJ Electrode (Ultra X) under normal conditions of use as it is approved for this device. Participants receive interventions as part of routine medical care.
In this clinical trial, an un-controlled, repeated measures open design with within-subject comparison will be used to evaluate the effect of the device under investigation on sound perception. This design was shown to be successful in previous studies for the evaluation of sound coding strategies. Furthermore, a within-subject comparison decreases the variance in the results allowing for fewer subjects when the population using the investigational device is not large in general.
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.
