4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The Auditory Nerve Test System (ANTS) is a novel device that stimulates the auditory nerve much like a cochlear implant. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate feasibility of the ANTS during translabyrinthine surgery for vestibular schwannoma resection. If the auditory nerve is kept intact, then the patients will also receive a cochlear implant at the same time potentially alleviating the morbidities caused by a vestibular schwannoma and asymmetric sensorineural hearing loss.
Do adults and children over 7 years of age with unilateral or assymetric hearing loss benefit from cochlear implantation on the worst hearing side.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of cochlear implantation of the approved population in adults and children with single-sided deafness and asymmetric hearing loss.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of different audio processor frequency settings on performance outcomes in new cochlear implant users using electric-only stimulation in the implanted ear with normal hearing to moderately severe hearing loss in the opposite ear.
