About this study

Official title: SpeechSensor and StereoZoom for Pediatrics

The study seeks to evaluate the impact of SpeechSensor and StereoZoom 2.0 on speech understanding in noise in dynamic listening conditions in pediatric hearing aid users.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to substantiate clinical performance claims regarding the benefit of the SpeechSensor feature on speech recognition in noise for side and rear speech as well as StereoZoom 2.0 benefit data for front speech in noise. In addition, the study will yield myPhonak app usability data and claims regarding children's impressions (confidence, anxiety) when given the opportunity to personalize their beamformer settings in noise during a home trial. Finally, this work will confirm hearing aid intended use for pediatric hearing aid users. Results will inform feature setting, provide critical post-market clinical hearing aid data and support for claims.

What is being measured

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

  1. Speech intelligibility using AZBio sentences Verbal response accuracy based on percent of words correctly repeated on an open-set sentence recognition in noise task.

    Verbal response accuracy based on percent of words correctly repeated on an open-set sentence recognition in noise task.

    1. Initial - Personalized Signal-to-Noise-Ratio (SNR) is determined for each participant by finding the point where the participant scores 50% correct individual words within sentences. The personalized SNR is determined from the average of two list for a given condition. (SpeechSensor and SZ2.0 objectives)
    2. For comparison conditions - Speech as noise will be presented at the participant's personalized SNR. Speech intelligibility will be determined by accuracy of individual words within sentences. The total words correct is determined for a single list for each condition. (Aided versus unaided, intended use objective).

    Measured: 3 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Speech Focus Slider Usability - Performance on a modified PHAST (Practical Hearing Aid Skills Test) tool will be used to document whether participants can successfully modify the Speech Focus slider.

    1. Ability to use slider in the app will be determined on the basis of successfully or not successfully completing a single task, "In a situation when you want to use the app, show me what you would do." The child will be reinstructed one time and must successfully perform the desired task to be eligible for the home trial.
    2. Ability to successfully use slider in the app will be determined based on successful execution of all of the following tasks correctly):
    3. Show me what you would do to better hear a person in front; ii. Show me what you would do to hear more of the sounds around you. iii. Demonstrate what you should do when you leave the situation.

    Measured: 3 hours

  2. Preference for having slider

    Preference for having the Speech Focus slider accessible via the app will be documented with a Yes/ No question on a subjective questionnaire administered post-home trial.

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  3. Confidence and Anxiety

    The possible impact of having access to the Speech Focus slider on confidence and anxiety will be measured using subjective ratings on a post-home trial questionnaire (i.e., Likert scale).

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Phonak Audéo Lumity 90-R in people with Hearing Loss, run by Sonova AG at 1 site in United States.

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 12 inclusion and 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2024. 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 United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Unreliable data). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Speech intelligibility using AZBio sentences Verbal response accuracy based on percent of words correctly repeated on an open-set sentence recognition in noise task. (time frame: 3 hours). 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 1 Aug 2024.
