Trial summary

It is difficult to predict the intraoperative visibility of the round window through the posterior Tympanostomy. In case of non-visualization, the surgeon may have to change operative technique during cochlear implant surgery. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Preoperative CT Scan Analysis to Predict Perioperative Round Window Visibility Through the Posterior Tympanotoy in Cochlear Implant Surgery

It is difficult to predict the intraoperative visibility of the round window through the posterior Tympanostomy. In case of non-visualization, the surgeon may have to change operative technique during cochlear implant surgery.

The primary purpose of the study is to define relevant CT measurements on the preoperative scanner to predict the perioperative visibility of the round window. Define relevant CT measurements on the preoperative scanner to predict the perioperative visibility of the round window.

The secondary purpose is to validate the investigator's scanner reading protocol for a prospective study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure of the correlation between preoperative CT measurements and the visibility of the round window observed intraoperatively (based on the operative records)

    Analysis of patient records (operative reports and preoperative CT-scan) from patients who underwent cochlear implantation between 01/01/2010 and 01/03/2018.

    Measured: 1 day after cochlear implantation surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tympanostomy Tube Insertion, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jul 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Anne CHARPIOT, MD, PhD (33 3 88 12 76 49, anne.charpiot@chru-strasbourg.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measure of the correlation between preoperative CT measurements and the visibility of the round window observed intraoperatively (based on the operative records) (time frame: 1 day after cochlear implantation surgery). 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.
