About this study

Background The authors' aim was to compare the influence of various electrode designs on selected objective and subjective clinical outcomes for cochlear implant recipients using the same model of receiver-stimulator, Cochlear™ Nucleus® Profile Series and sound processor.

Methods A multicenter study with subjects with profound sensorineural hearing loss, who were implanted and followed up in two tertiary centers. A total of 54 ears were implanted with Cochlear™ Nucleus® CI532, 51 with Cochlear™ Nucleus® CI522 and 54 with the Cochlear™ Nucleus® CI512. Implant loss and intraoperative electrophysiological tests (electrically evoked stapedial reflex threshold [ESRT], neural response telemetry threshold [T-NRT] and impedance), postoperative data (C-level, T-level, dynamic range, T-NRT and power consumption) and intracochlear position of the active electrode were analyzed with Nucleus Custom Sound 4.4 software.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Intraoperative measurements

    Intraoperative impedance (kOhm) of the stimulating electrode with different types of cochlear implants.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Intraoperative measurements

    Electrical stapedial reflex threshold (ESRT; current unit) with different types of cochlear implants

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Intraoperative measurements

    Neural response telemetry threshold (T-NRT; current unit) with different types of cochlear implants

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Postoperative measurements

    Postoperative neural response telemetry threshold (T-NRT; current unit) with different types of cochlear implants

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Postoperative measurements

    Postoperative comfort level (C-level; current unit) with different types of cochlear implants

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Postoperative measurements

    Power consumption of different types of cochlear implants

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cochlear Implant, run by Szeged University at 1 site in Hungary.

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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Hungary. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Intraoperative measurements (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 3 May 2018.
