What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects Experiencing a Peri-procedural Adverse Event Due to Use of the iotaSOFT Insertion System During Cochlear Implant Surgery

    Number of subjects experiencing a peri-procedural adverse event due to use of the iotaSOFT Insertion System and descriptions of reported adverse events. AEs will be summarized by type and number of subjects experiencing an event.

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Successful Surgical Use of the iotaSOFT Insertion System During Cochlear Implant Surgery as Measured by a Surgeon Utility Questionnaire. The Questionnaire Will be Used to Calculate the Proportion of Subjects in Which the Device Performed as Intended.

    The questionnaire will collect device handling data on proportion of subjects in which the device performed as intended, device utility, and ease of use.
