Filter by:This study studies the prevalence between obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and sensorineural hearing loss. We recruit patients who have been treated for sudden sensorineural hearing loss in Poitiers' University Hospital between 2010 et 2017, and we detect if they have OSA with a ventilatory polygraphy.
To assess the feasibility of achieving a minimally invasive access to the inner ear through the navigation-based HEARO procedure and subsequently insert the electrode array of the cochlear implant through the access.
This study will determine the facilitation, refractoriness and spatial spread effects of auditory nerve fiber responses to electrical stimulation via a cochlear implant. The performance of CI users in melody contour and speech recognition in noise tests with their own clinical sound processor and a MATLAB implementation of their coding strategy will be compared and a bioinspired coding strategy will be evaluated in comparison with the conventional ACE coding strategy.
The purpose of this study is to in a proactive manner collect high quality data from a pediatric patients who have undergone a bone anchored hearing solution, using the Ponto BHX implant, in clinical practice. This to further increase the knowledge of using the system.
Phonak Hearing Systems pass through different development and study stages. At an early stage, feasibility studies are conducted to investigate new algorithms, features and functions in an isolated manner. If the benefit is proven, their performance is then investigated regarding interdependency between all available algorithms, features and functions running in parallel in a hearing aid (pivotal/pre-validation studies) and, as a result, they get optimized. Afterwards, and prior to product launch, the Phonak Hearing Systems undergo a final quality control in terms of clinical trials. This is a pre-validation study, investigating optimized algorithms, features, functions and wearing comfort. This will be a clinical investigation which will be conducted mono centric at Sonova AG Headquarters based in Stäfa (Switzerland).
This study evaluates the treatment efficacy of tinnitus in people with mild hearing loss. One-third of participants will use hearing aid, one-third of participants will use customized music, while the other one-third participants will receive no treatment (waiting list control).
Study on patients with CNS infections.
The timing of brain changes that may influence hearing rehabilitation within human A1 after single-sided deafness (SSD) is not known. The goal is to determine when A1 neural plasticity occurs following SSD onset.
the objectives of the study is to Evaluate the effectiveness of "The Interfaces Program" to promote person's components, performance and improving the work environment of people with disabilities.
To evaluate ischemia-modified albumin levels in these patients to investigate the presence of ischemia in patients presenting with sudden hearing loss.
