The main objective of the study is to better explain disappointing speech recognition in individual cases, with as ultimate goal to find optimal individual settings for the sound processor (outside the scope of this project). We test two new methods…
Comparison of hearing preservation and outcome of two fundamentally different cochlear implants designs (LW or PM) and the two most used surgical approaches (RW or CO). Secondly, asses the structure preservation (i.e., scalar position) of each…
1. Define diagnostic approach for patients with bilateral vestibulopathy.2. Define inclusion criteria for vestibular implantation.3. Investigate patient expectations of the vestibular implant. 4. To gain a clear insight into consumption of health…
The aim of the current study is to examine whether it is possible to improve speech recognition in specific CI users by optimizing dynamic range and mean aided thresholds. Furthermore, we want to investigate to what extent patient counselling and…
1.To assess if multiple sequentially steered pulses can reach appropriate loudness while main-taining a single percept in cochlear implant subjects2.To compare loudness growth of sequentially steered pulse trains with those of conventional monopolar…
The aim of this feasibility study is to validate pre-treatment [89Zr]-bevacizumab PET/CT as an imaging biomarker for prediction of treatment response to bevacizumab treatment in patients with NF2 related (vestibular) schwannomas.
To evaluate the vestibular function relating results to surgery, radiotherapy, active surveillance, intratympanic gentamicin, and intratympanic gentamicin followed by active treatment based on objective vestibular testing and dizziness related QoL.
The primary objective of this study is to validate the *Hearing and Sound* questionnaire, developed by *VeiligheidNL*, which addresses exposure to noise through headphone use and visiting events with amplified music. The main study endpoint is to…
Validate and improve the new experimental algorithm.
The objective is to improve directional hearing in bimodal listeners using a novel way of coupling the CI and HA using speech-enhancement strategies, specifically, beamformers on both CI and HA. We will assess the effectiveness of bimodal…
Our main objective is to assess the effects of hearing impairment on the subjective and physiological stress responses experienced during acoustically and socially challenging real-life settings and relate these to features acquired during…
Primary aimTo determine the prevalence of children with hearing loss at time of discontinuation of cancer therapy in a prospective full cohort of 600 children with solid and CNS tumors.The secondary objectives of this study are:- To study the…
The primary objective of this study is: * To assess the safety and tolerability of single ascending volumes of placebo as well as volumes and doses of AC102-suspension by intratympanic injection in healthy male and female subjects.The secondary…
The main objective of the study is to assess the effect of a cochlear implant on tinnitus burden in patients suffering from tinnitus accompanied by hearing loss.
