NCT ID: NCT06226558 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Sensorineural Hearing Loss

Long-Term Outcomes of Children With Congenital CMV in New York State

PROACTIVE NYS
Start date: February 1, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

PROACTIVE NYS is a long-term follow-up study of all infants who test positive for congenital Cytomegalovirus infection (CMV) throughout New York State on the Newborn Screen. By following all infants who screen positive, we will learn important information about the range of symptoms caused by congenital CMV, from those babies with more severe findings to those with no symptoms. In particular, our study will provide new information about many facets of congenital CMV, including: - Developmental, hearing, neurologic, and vision outcomes - The spectrum and timing of symptoms - The impact congenital CMV has on the baby and its family - How many babies are infected with congenital CMV in New York State How antiviral medications and other interventions impact outcomes of children with congenital CMV Throughout the duration of the study, children will undergo routine developmental and hearing assessments, which will assist with early diagnosis of any infection complications. Any child found to have a neurodevelopmental, hearing, or vision abnormality will be referred for appropriate evaluation and treatment. Families will also be asked to complete periodic surveys about their experience with congenital CMV, both as a medical diagnosis and as it affects their day-to-day activities.

NCT ID: NCT06223724 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Sensorineural Hearing Loss

Status Telemetry for Cochlear Implantations

PATHOS
Start date: October 25, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Cochlear implants (CIs) are well-established neuroprosthesis used to restore hearing for patients with partial or complete deafness. However, the audiological outcomes of these implants can vary widely, and one reason for this is suboptimal electrode placement. The gold standard for measuring electrode positions is computed tomography (CT) scans, but they are expensive and expose patients to additional radiation, which is especially harmful for children. This study investigates an alternative approach using impedance telemetry data to estimate electrode positions without exposing patients to radiation. For this purpose, an extended telemetry version of a CE-certified cochlear implant software is used. The advanced impedance telemetry software can measure impedance subcomponents with improved measurement resolution that could be used for more accurate estimation of electrode insertion depth using specially designed estimation software. Ultimately, the investigators want to demonstrate the potential to improve audiological outcomes of cochlear implant recipients without exposing them to additional radiation.

NCT ID: NCT06218966 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Hearing Loss, Sensorineural

Usability of the Intracochlear Catheter INCAT - a Feasibility Study

INCAT
Start date: January 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT06215599 Completed - Hearing Loss Clinical Trials

Attitude Change Of Hearing Health Professionals On Bone-Anchored Hearing Devices Over Time In a Developing Country

Start date: January 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study aims to examine shifts in attitudes about bone-anchored hearing instruments (BAHIs) among hearing health professionals over a period of time.

NCT ID: NCT06198192 Completed - Clinical trials for Hearing Impaired Children

Effects of Pilates Exercises on Hearing Impairment Children

Start date: December 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will determine the effects of Pilates exercises on static and dynamic balance in children with hearing impairment. Children with hearing impairment often encounter challenges in their motor development, including difficulties in maintaining balance and mobility. Impaired balance and limited mobility can significantly impact their overall physical well-being and functional independence. Therefore, it becomes crucial to explore effective interventions that can address these specific needs and promote improve balance and mobility in this population. Pilates, a mind-body exercise approach, has gained recognition for its potential benefits in enhancing balance, flexibility, and core strength in various populations.

NCT ID: NCT06198049 Completed - Clinical trials for Hearing Impaired Children

Effects of Pilates and Balance Proprioception Exercises on Hearing Impairment

Start date: December 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Static balance is the ability to hold the body in a specific position and posture, while dynamic balance is the ability to maintain balance while moving. Vision, somatosensation, vestibular, and hearing are integrated to achieve balance Ethical committee approval will be obtained. A written consent will be taken from all subjects in the language best understood by them, after fulfilling the inclusion criteria, Patients age 10-14 years will be recruited through Randomized Clinical trial in which convenient sampling technique will be used. Group A 17 participants will receive Pilates training and group B 17 participants will receive balance Proprioception exercises. Pediatric balance scale and Lower Extremity Functional scale will be used .The result after statistical analysis will either show both treatments equally effective or not. Data will be calculated before and after treatment with the help of outcome measure tools.

NCT ID: NCT06190938 Completed - Diabetes Mellitus Clinical Trials

Diabetes Complications and Hearing Loss

Start date: June 23, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Observation study, shows the relation between diabetes, its neurological and optical complication and hearing loss, by asking participants questions about there age,BMI,job,the history of any cataract,diabetes retinopathy or heart attack,hypertension,swollen or tingling legs and take there consent to measure the hearing impairment.

NCT ID: NCT06189274 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Single-Sided Deafness

Anatomy Based Selection of CI Array for SSD Patients

Start date: April 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT06176625 Active, not recruiting - Delirium Clinical Trials

Sight and Hearing Investigation Into Effects on Delirium

SHIELD
Start date: January 11, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this observational study is to learn about sensory loss in hospital patients with delirium. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Are hearing and vision loss related to increased risk of having delirium? - Do hearing and vision loss contribute to more severe delirium? - Do sensory loss and/or delirium affect patient satisfaction with hospital care? Participants will be asked to: - answer delirium screening questions, - undergo hearing & vision screenings, and - complete questionnaires about the hospital stay. The second part of this study is a clinical trial. Researchers will compare different hospital units to see if changing communication affects the number of patients with delirium. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Does sharing information about communication and/or providing hearing devices change the number of hospital patients with delirium? Participants in the study will be asked to complete delirium screenings and answer questions about their hearing and communication.
