Recruiting studies in North Carolina
- NCT04506853Recruiting
Cochlear implant study for one-sided severe hearing loss
This trial is studying whether a cochlear implant can help people who have very poor hearing in one ear but normal or mild hearing loss in the other ear. It uses hearing tests and speech understanding to see who may benefit and how well the device works.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 5 years+ - NCT04707885Recruiting
Testing how much residual hearing helps with cochlear implants
This study looks at whether keeping some natural (residual) hearing in the implant ear can improve outcomes with a cochlear implant. If you fit their hearing and implant-device requirements, they’ll measure your hearing before and after implantation to see how well you can use that remaining hearing.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–79 - NCT05775367Recruiting
Cochlear implants for young children with one-sided deafness
This study checks whether cochlear implants help young children (ages about 7 months to under 3 years) who have very severe hearing loss in one ear. It also compares them with similar children who do not get implants, to understand what outcomes to expect.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 7 months–5.9 years - NCT06734039Enrolling by invitation
Early Performance with Anatomy-Based Cochlear Implant Programming
This study looks at how programming a cochlear implant based on your inner ear's shape may improve early hearing performance. It is for adults who already have or will get a MED-EL cochlear implant and have some hearing in the opposite ear.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07500311Enrolling by invitation
Comparison of a new sound management feature for Med-El cochlear implants
This trial tests if a new automatic sound feature helps people with Med-El cochlear implants hear better in different environments. It compares performance with the feature turned on versus off.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05318417Recruiting
Cochlear implant study for one-sided deafness
This study checks whether cochlear implantation is safe and effective for people who have very poor hearing in one ear (single-sided deafness) while the other ear hears normally or nearly normally. You may be enrolled if you meet specific hearing test and health/surgery readiness requirements.
