Who might be able to join this trial:
- Adults aged 18 years or older who have been diagnosed with severe to profound hearing loss and are already planning to have cochlear implant surgery at the University of Miami.
- People with profound sensorineural (nerve-related) hearing loss may be eligible for the safety portion of the trial (up to 6 participants).
- People with some remaining hearing, as measured by a pre-surgery hearing test called an auditory brainstem response (ABR), may be eligible for the main efficacy portion of the trial (up to 48 participants).
- The trial aims to enroll equal numbers of men and women, and participants may speak either English or Spanish.
- The cochlear implant surgery, pre- and post-surgery care, and device setup are all considered standard medical care and are not experimental parts of the trial.
- The trial accepts participants receiving cochlear implant devices from any of the three main manufacturers — Advanced Bionics, Cochlear Corporation, or Med-EL — where the device has been approved by the FDA for that person's level of hearing loss (confirm with trial site).
- People receiving cochlear implant devices not listed in the trial description may also be considered eligible, as manufacturer criteria can change (confirm with trial site).
Who may not be able to join:
- People under 18 years of age.
- People who do not meet the specific hearing requirements set out for the trial.
