NCT ID: NCT05543135 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Asymmetrical Hearing Loss

Aetiology of Asymmetrical Hearing Loss: A Retro-spective Study Thesis Submitted for Partial Fulfillment of Master Degree in Audio-Vestibular Medicine

Start date: September 20, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Hearing loss maybe: -Symmetrical: in which the severity and pattern of hearing loss are the same in each ear. Or -Asymmetrical: is defined as binaural difference in bone conduction thresholds of >10 dB at two consecutive frequencies or >20 dB at one frequency (0.25-8.0 kHz), Poorer speech perception will often accompany poorer hearing and may be the reason for the patient's presentation .Unilateral or asymmetrical sensorineural hearing loss is important to discern, as it is an important risk factor for auditory nerve tumors (i.e. vestibular schwannoma) which is a life threatening condition, and in such cases further investigation is required (i.e. MRI scan) unless there is a known reason for the asymmetry, Several reports have recommended that further evaluation, especially expensive imaging studies, be conducted to rule out acoustic tumors when AHL is present

NCT ID: NCT05511753 Not yet recruiting - Electroacupuncture Clinical Trials

The Effect of Acupuncture on Patients With Noise-induced Hearing Loss

Start date: September 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In an era of advanced industry and commerce, working in a noisy environment is one of the most important risk factors for hearing damage, especially among young and middle-aged people. Although acupuncture has been widely used to treat otology-related diseases, such as tinnitus, dizziness, and sudden deafness, there are few studies on the effect of noise-induced hearing loss.

NCT ID: NCT05399264 Not yet recruiting - Hearing Loss Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Auditory Training and Combined Auditory-working-memory Training in Improving Communication in Older Adults

Start date: June 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Using a randomized controlled trial, we are going to examine whether a training program that incorporates both auditory training and working memory training (AT-WMT) would generate significantly better results in communication and cognition than an auditory training program and a mindfulness training program (active-control). Participants are 120 older adults (40 per group) with untreated mild-to-moderate sensorineural hearing impairment .

NCT ID: NCT05343026 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Tinnitus, Subjective

Efficacy of Hearing-aid Treatment for Patients With Tinnitus and Co-existing Hearing Loss

Start date: July 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Considering the extent to which HAs play a role in sound perception and residual hearing preservation among patients with tinnitus and co-existing HL remains a lack of compelling extensive evidence, investigators designed this single-blind, 6-months randomized, controlled trial with two parallel groups. One is the HA treatment group, and the other is the waiting list control (WLC) group which receives no interventions during this period.

NCT ID: NCT05329207 Not yet recruiting - Health Promotion Clinical Trials

Effects of Web-Based Adolescent Health Promotion Program in Hearing Impaired Adolescents

ASGE-FABES
Start date: April 18, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Our research is to evaluate the effect and applicability of the adolescent health promotion program, which includes multiple behavioral interventions, on physical activity, nutrition and mental health of hearing impaired adolescents living in the community.

NCT ID: NCT05249504 Not yet recruiting - Depressive Symptoms Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of AMICOPE Intervention to Maintain Self-Perceived Health and Intrinsic Capacity in Older People

EFICIS
Start date: April 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In their day to day, persons do from simple to more or less complicated tasks and activities (ie: stand from a chair, open a door, shopping, read, drive, play chess, remind an appointment...). Such ability to do things is called capacity. Intrinsic capacity is the combination of all the physical and mental capacities that a person has, and reach its maximum in the early adulthood and then declines as the person ages. Each kind of capacity declines at her own speed (which may be faster or slower according to each person lifestyle), and once drops below a threshold may lead to a reduction in quality of life and loss of autonomy. Nevertheless there are some actions that may be effective to prevent or slow such decline. To do so the investigators have design an intervention that combines several things of different nature (what is know as a complex intervention) called AMICOPE. The AMICOPE intervention is performed in the community or in primary care centers through 12 weekly group sessions of 2 h 30 min which combine structured and adapted physical activity, group dynamics to promote social support and address loneliness, social isolation and depressive symptoms, and dietary advice. Our study is addressed to persons over 70 with light problems in mobility, nutrition or mood state. The purpose of this study is to assess if the AMICOPE intervention is better than the standard advice to follow healthy lifestyles to improve or maintain self-perceived health, mobility, nutritional status an psychological wellbeing.

NCT ID: NCT05154188 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Sensorineural Hearing Loss, Bilateral

Post Approval Study to Assure the ContInued saFety and effectIveness of Neuro Cochlear Implant System in Adult Users

PACIFIC
Start date: September 1, 2025
Phase:
Study type: Observational

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.

NCT ID: NCT05152589 Not yet recruiting - Hearing Loss Clinical Trials

Maternal Diabetes in Newborns With Hearing Loss

GDM
Start date: January 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

This study aims to investigate the presence and characteristics of maternal diabetes as a risk factor in newborns with hearing loss. Hearing loss is one of the most common congenital anomalies among newborns. The newborn hearing screening program is important for early diagnosis in newborns with hearing loss.Gestational diabetes, on the other hand, is a metabolic disease that occurs during pregnancy and can cause complications as in other diabetes mellitus patients. Despite our knowledge of major complications, the effect of the hyperglycemic intrauterine environment on hearing outcomes has not been adequately studied. The inner ear does not store energy, so it has a particularly high sensitivity to altered blood sugar and insulin. Altered inner ear metabolism leads to auditory and balance disorders. There is no study in the literature comparing uncomplicated gestational diabetes and pregestational diabetes as a prenatal complication that poses a risk of hearing loss.

NCT ID: NCT05145946 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for High-Frequency Hearing Loss

Tracking Biomarkers of Speech Intelligibility

Start date: January 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Difficulties understanding speech in noisy environments repeatedly coincide with high-frequency hearing loss. This complaint is commonly exhibited in adults in middle/older age who have a history of noise exposure. In this study, an immersive audiomotor training game will be utilized to drive improvements in speech intelligibility, controlled by an auditory memory training game. Physiological measures will be tracked that could inform clinical assessment of hearing in noise abilities.
