Filter by: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.
The cochlear implant provides good auditory performance despite high inter-individual variability, but performance in noise remains limited. Modification of the coding strategies could improve these performances. A better characterization of the remaining neuronal population by looking for the charge integration efficiency (which depends on the duration and the amplitude of the electrical pulse) would allow an optimization of the settings by adapting either the duration or the amplitude of the pulse according to the quality of the remaining neuronal population.
MED-EL Remote Care is a way for MED-EL cochlear implant users to check their hearing and cochlear implant device from any location, without the need for a scheduled, in-person appointment with their audiologist. This study will assess the effectiveness, efficiencies, and useability of MED-EL Remote Care.
The goal of the BEARS clinical trial is to determine whether using the directional listening training delivered via the BEARS training package for 3-months alongside usual care compared to only receiving usual care improves speech-in-noise perception, hearing experiences, vocabulary and quality of life and reduces listening effort in young people between 8-16 years old (inclusive) with two cochlear implants. The participants will complete hearing assessments and questionnaires before completing the 3-month intervention. They will be followed up for the next 9-months through online and in-person appointments.
Assessment of the efficacy of Intratympanic platelet rich plasma injection for treatment of idiopathic suden sensorineural hearing loss
At present, few research on the auditory perception function and possible neural mechanisms of unilateral sudden hearing loss patients with complete or partial recovery of peripheral hearing.This project evaluate the speech perception function in noise of unilateral sudden hearing loss patients with with complete and partial hearing recovery by cognitive behavioral experiments, event-related potentials (ERPs) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and longitudinal follow-up to explore its underlying neural mechanisms.
Patients with unilateral Meniere Disease often a distortion that causes difficulties to provide hearing aids to these patients. Those patients have two main problems: disorders in noise comprehension due to interaural threshold difference and increase in the distortion during dizziness crisis. Due to these problems, some people cannot be fitting with hearing aids because the compression needed is too high or the discomfort in noise is not bearable for patients. Our aim is to evaluate and to propose a way to adjust hearing aids to restore binaural hearing with comfort.
On June 23, 2021, the Oticon Medical Neuro Cochlear Implant System (NCIS) was granted premarket approval (PMA) in the US to treat individuals 18 years or older, with bilateral severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss, who obtain limited benefit from appropriately fitted hearing aid(s). To help assure the continued safety and effectiveness of an approved device, a post-approval study was required as a condition of approval under 21 CFR 814.82(a)(2). The purpose of this study is to provide longer-term data on the safety and effectiveness of the Neuro Cochlear Implant System under general conditions of use in the postmarket environment.
Evaluation of the outcome of cochlear implantation (CI) is very important issue since adequate hearing is linked to improved communication outcomes and school performance, development of speech and language, enhances speech perception in quiet and noise and even allows CI recipients to use the telephone. As well as there is a growing need for a widely used set of international quality standards on minimal outcome measurements to determine outcomes in CI recipients, monitor the auditory progress of CI recipients over time and to be able to relate on important issues as the most ideal age for implantation and the cut-off audiological thresholds for CI indication. This study will be conducted to evaluate outcome of cochlear implantation in sohag university hospital. Aim of work: To evaluate the outcome of cochlear implantation in Sohag university hospital.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a scleral buckling surgical procedure performed on fellow eyes of patients with genetically confirmed Stickler syndrome can prevent the occurrence retinal detachment and/or severe vision loss of the study eye.
