View clinical trials related to Congenital Hearing Loss.
Filter by:Congenital hearing loss, as well as hearing loss present at birth, is one of the most common chronic conditions in children, with a prevalence of permanent bilateral hearing loss of 2.83 per 1000 children of primary school age, which is mainly caused by genetic factors. The goal of this observational study is to learn about novel causative genes in infants with hearing loss in the Chinese population. The main problem it aims to deal with are: - to present the genetic characteristics of the infant with hearing loss in the Chinese population - to build up a prognostic model base on diverse data. Participants will be asked to receive audiological tests and collection of the peripheral blood sample.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether HG205 as CRISPR/Cas13 RNA base-editing therapy is safe and effective for the treatment of hearing loss caused by p.Q829X mutation in OTOF gene.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of cochlear implantation in infants and toddlers with single-sided deafness. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Are cochlear implants an effective treatment of single-sided deafness in infants and toddlers? - Are cochlear implants a safe treatment for single-sided deafness in infants and toddlers? Participants will receive a cochlear implant and be followed until they are five years old. During those five years, the investigators will program the device and monitor auditory development. Children will be asked to: - Undergo cochlear implantation - Wear their cochlear implant processor whenever they are awake. - Participate in traditional hearing tests - Participate in traditional hearing testing - Participate in localization testing - Participate in hearing in noise testing - Participate in word recognition testing - Participate in speech, language, and educational evaluations The researchers will compare results to children with typical hearing in both ears and children with single-sided deafness who have not received an implant to observe any differences between the groups.
Hearing loss is the most common sensory congenital disorder and this condition is diagnosable and treatable. Children that are born with hearing loss have to undergo several hearing tests to diagnose the condition and many families are delayed in receiving this testing or never obtain the needed testing. This research employs a new method for helping children with hearing loss receive timely care by using a patient navigator, who is someone who teaches and provides emotional/social support for the families of these children. The hypothesis of this study is that a patient navigator will hasten the timing of pediatric audiological testing, improve compliance with scheduled appointments, and expand parental knowledge of pediatric hearing loss.
