The primary objective is to investigate the course of limitations in physical activity and daily functioning in patients who are diagnosed with unilateral or bilateral vestibular hypofunction, and to identify factors that are associated with this…
The objective of this study is to investigate whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy twice-daily for five days (HBOT5) is superior to hyperbaric oxygen therapy once daily for ten days (HBOT10) in obtaining hearing loss recovery after AAT. This will be…
Primary Objective: The primary objective is to compare GABA concentrations and receptors availability in the auditory pathway between individuals with tinnitus and two control groups without tinnitus (with or without hearing loss). GABA…
The objective of the study is to explore potential beneficial effects of improvisation-based musical training: 1) on speech-on-speech perception and music appreciation in CI users, 2) on HR-QoL-related aspects as well as to explore other nuances in…

The primary objective of this study is to determine the effect of specific communicative abilities (speech recognition in noise; vocal emotion recognition and emotion expression) in children with hearing loss on their psychological (emotional and…
Primary Objective:To evaluate the effect of CTN injury on postoperative taste function measured using taste strips in patients undergoing primary stapes surgery or primary cochlear implantation. Secondary Objective(s):- To compare the postoperative…
The main objectives of this study will be to demonstrate that the Sentio system improves hearing on the implanted ear and provides patients with improved speech recognition on the implanted ear. In addition, adverse events related to the Sentio…
The aim of this study is to determine whether physical referral to an ENT specialist for hearing complaints and/or tinnitus can be reduced or prevented by using the Tympa system. Is the informatic provided by the Tympa system consisting of the…
The main objective of this study is to conduct a double-blind randomized control trial to assess the efficacy of 3 different amplification schemes of hearing aids in tinnitus patients. The schemes will be adjusted to the individual*s tinnitus…
The primary objective is to clarify the frequency of t-BPPV in patients after mild TBI. Secondary objectives are: assessment of the symptoms of t-BPPV and the treatment success of t-BPPV.
