Filter by:Acute cochleo-vestibular syndrome or labyrinthitis is characterized clinically by the sudden appearance of a great rotatory vertigo and a unilateral sensorineural hearing loss. In this clinical context, MRI is the examination to eliminate differential diagnoses and to make a positive diagnosis of labyrinthitis (supposedly infectious, immunologic or ischemic). The etiologies described are ischemic, infectious or autoimmune, so the risk factors are very variable (cardiovascular, autoimmune or infectious). Labyrinthitis has been little studied as a clinical entity in its own right. Indeed, studies mainly focus on sudden deafness with subgroups of patients with vertigo. The incidence of sudden deafness is of the order of 5 to 20 per 100,000 people per year but is probably under-diagnosed. The individual and medico-economic consequences are similar to those of hearing loss, with an increased risk of dementia, depression, premature death and an increase in health care consumption.
This is a Phase 2, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy of FX-322, administered by intratympanic injection, in adults with acquired sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL).
This observational study evaluates the effects of cochlear implantation in patients with deafness in one ear.
Pilot study done to evaluate the breakdown and and potential utility of a bioabsorbable ventilation ear tube made with gelatin.
This is a Phase 1b, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose, multicenter, safety study of FX-322, administered by intratympanic injection, in adults with severe sensorineural hearing loss.
This is a Phase 1b, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose, multicenter, safety study of FX-322, administered by intratympanic injection, in adults with age-related sensorineural hearing loss.
Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) refers to idiopathic sensorineural hearing loss of at least 30 dB over at least three test frequencies occurring over a 72-hour period. Vertigo has been considered a risk factor of poor prognosis in patients with ISSNHL. However, the clinical outcome and development of vestibular function in these patients have not been reported yet. We'd like to conduct a study on the problem whether these patients resulted in a complete recovery of the peripheral vestibular functions or compensation of the central vestibular system. If the answer is the former one, these cases might be supportive evidence of regeneration of hair cells in vestibular disorders.
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.
The purpose of this study is to determine if anakinra (an interleukin-1 receptor antagonist) can improve hearing thresholds in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss that did not respond to oral steroid therapy. The patients to be enrolled will have recently completed a course of oral steroids and demonstrated no change in their audiometric thresholds following corticosteroid therapy. The investigators will be measuring hearing thresholds (Pure tone average and word recognition scores) before and after anakinra and correlating these findings with circulating IL-1 levels in the patient's blood.
The aim of the study is to assess the effect of antiviral therapy with pegylated interferon alpha for hepatitis C and B on auditory disability as there are reports in the English literature on auditory disability caused by interferon alpha.
