Filter by:This study aims to investigate the effect of stimulation parameters and different electrode modes on speech perception in adult cochlear implant recipients.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cochlear implantation for adults with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss who currently do not meet the FDA-approved indications for cochlear implantation. Following cochlear implantation, participants will complete speech perception assessments and questionnaires over the course of seven visits.
Evaluation of the diagnostic and prognostic efficacy of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging in patients with acute sensorineural hearing loss or in patients suffering from probable or definite MD. The neuroradiological and audiological evaluation are held on in the same day in order to better clarify the radiological and clinical correlates.
The goal of the study is to determine the benefit of using an ECochG-based corrective action guide during cochlear implant surgery compared to the traditional surgical approach without ECochG surveillance and guidance.
The goal of this descriptive study is to collect the wideband immittance data in Thai normal hearing and conductive hearing loss adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is normative data of wideband acoustic immittance in Thai normal hearing adults 2. What is the wideband acoustic immittance data in Thai conductive hearing loss who have type A, AS and Ad tympanogram Participants will examine hearing tests consequently - pure tone audiometry - Tympanometry with ipsilateral acoustic reflex - Wideband acoustic immittance
The goal of this 2 step-up, exploratory study is to test safey, tolerability and PK/PD profiles in healthy volunteers and safety, tolerability and efficacy in sudden sensorineural hearing loss patients as an early salvage therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. whether is it safe and tolerable when healthy volunteers and sudden sensorineural hearing loss patients take multiple doses of NS101 against FAM19A5 2. whether is it effective in reversing hearing capability in sudden sensorineural hearing loss patients who fails to show sufficient recovery despite of oral standard steroid therapy. Patients and heathly volunteers will be given NS101 15mg/kg or 30mg/kg systemically less than 3 months per protocol. This is placebo controlled, double blinded study, which means there will be a group who receives placebo (i.e. fake drug) for study purpose.
The proposed field trial will clarify the real-world effectiveness of HAs in remediating deficits in emotion processing for older adults with mild-to-moderate hearing loss. This study will employ a repeated reversal design to establish baseline affective state without HAs, when wearing amplification, and after HAs are removed. This study will triangulate self-report, behavioral, and physiological measures to capture nuances of emotional processing in the laboratory and in daily listening. Naturalistic stimuli will be used as it occurs in daily life to elicit emotional experiences, and ecological momentary assessment and commercially-available wearable sensors will be used to track changes in emotional state in daily listening. Anchoring real-world emotional experiences with controlled laboratory experiences will validate wearable sensors. Additionally, laboratory emotional stimuli will be related to real-world emotional experiences to establish the utility of laboratory stimuli in future studies. It is likely that benefits in emotional processing will have differential effects based on individual characteristics (such as degree of hearing loss, age, gender, cognitive ability, and personality), so participants will be analyzed according to larger groupings based on individual differences.
1. Assess the impact of hearing impairment on cognition 2. Evaluate the impact of hearing impairment on mental health 3. Evaluate the impact of hearing impairment on quality of life 4. Assess the relation between hearing loss and psychiatric disorder
This cohort study aims to explore the trends and differences in multidimensional perceptual levels of patients after cochlear implants or gene therapy, as well as to comprehensively assess the efficacy of gene therapy for congenital deafness, thus providing a reference for making a well-rounded postoperative rehabilitation protocol for gene therapy patients.
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 be children in the age of 3-10 years with sensorineural hearing loss. The test protocol consists of questionnaires and vestibular and postural assessments.
