About this study

Bilateral severe to profound hearing loss is a socially disabling handicap. Cochlear implants can be used to improve hearing in cases where conventional hearing aids are not effective. There are few studies about the long latency Auditory Evoked Potential (P300), in individuals with hearing loss and Cochlear Implant (CI) users. The aim of this project is to study the behavior of P300 in users of unilateral CI.

Read the detailed description

Bilateral severe to profound hearing loss is a socially disabling handicap. Cochlear implants can be used to improve hearing in cases where conventional hearing aids are not effective. There are few studies about the long latency Auditory Evoked Potential (P300), in individuals with hearing loss and Cochlear Implant (CI) users. The aim of this project is to study the behavior of P300 in users of unilateral CI. Twenty patients with bilateral severe and/or profound post-lingual deafness, all submitted to CI surgery, will be evaluated. Patients will be evaluated through P300 testing on the day before CI surgery, on the day of device activation and 6 months after device use. It is hoped that this study can contribute to the understanding of the mechanisms of brain plasticity involved in the recovery of hearing function after CI surgery. There are few studies on the behavior of P300 in CI users and there are no studies showing how central stimulation occurs after device implantation, during the phases of pre CI, CI activation and 6 months after CI.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Improvement of the P300 Responses after CI (time frame: 06 months after CI). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03352154, which also lists 13 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Mar 2020.
