Filter by: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.
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
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
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.
This is a feasibility study for a inner ear catheter which will be used to apply steroids to the inner ear. It will be used on nearly deaf patients during their surgery, when they receive an implant that will restore the hearing. Treatment with steroids will improve the maintenance of residual hearing, which will be tested during and after the surgery.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate cochlear implant speech outcomes and subjective benefit for cochlear implant recipients with single-sided deafness using patient-specific, anatomy-based array selection versus standard of care with a fixed array size for all patients. Subjects will prospectively be assigned to receive an Anatomy-Based Electrode (FLEX26, FLEX28, or FLEXSOFT) or the Standard of Care Electrode array (FLEX28). Speech performance and subjective benefit will be evaluated between these two groups.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the different dose regimens of the efficacy of oral steroids in the acute tinnitus population. Participants will receive different appropriate dosages of prednisone tablets and oral Ginkgo Biloba tablets.
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL), like neurodegenerative diseases, appears insidiously with age. As major public health issues, they are nonetheless under-diagnosed because the presence of one can hinder the objectification of the other. The CogAudio project aims to detect early and in an ambulatory mode in a memory centre a speech perception disorder in noise thanks to the VRB test in patients weakened by cognitive disorders.
Assessment of children by speech auditory brainstem response which is an objective method to study the speech development
