Trial summary

Patients with unilateral Meniere Disease often a distortion that causes difficulties to provide hearing aids to these patients. Those patients have two main problems: disorders in noise comprehension due to interaural threshold difference and increase in the distortion during dizziness crisis. Read more about this study

About this study

Patients with unilateral Meniere Disease often a distortion that causes difficulties to provide hearing aids to these patients. Those patients have two main problems: disorders in noise comprehension due to interaural threshold difference and increase in the distortion during dizziness crisis.

Due to these problems, some people cannot be fitting with hearing aids because the compression needed is too high or the discomfort in noise is not bearable for patients.

Our aim is to evaluate and to propose a way to adjust hearing aids to restore binaural hearing with comfort.

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ashley BAGUANT, MD (+33476765662, abaguant@chu-grenoble.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of the comprehension in noise (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT05582148, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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