Testing a new ear reconstruction system in children
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new device called the Auryzon EAR 2.0 System to help rebuild ears in children and teens who have a deformity from birth or injury. The goal is to see if it works well for patients having surgery at Nemours Children's Hospital in Florida.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two ways of doing ear reconstruction surgery for people born with a small or missing outer ear (microtia). It tests whether connecting the remaining ear to the new cartilage scaffold is safer and works better when done in the first surgery versus a second surgery.
This trial tests two different ways to mold and fix ear deformities in newborns. If successful, your baby could have a more normally shaped ear without surgery.
This trial tests a new bone-anchored hearing system called OSIA for children born with missing or incomplete outer ears (microtia or atresia). It aims to see if the implant works well on both sides for improving hearing.
This study tests a new way to stimulate your hearing nerve during ear surgery while you are awake. It might help doctors better understand hearing loss and improve future treatments.
This study is developing a system to evaluate and improve hearing for people with congenital hearing loss. It compares participants who have hearing loss (and have used hearing aids, cochlear implants, or gene therapy) with healthy controls, to better understand and treat hearing challenges.
This study tests a new laser device that uses light to find fluid behind the eardrum. It will be used during your child's scheduled ear tube surgery.
