Cochlear Implantation After Labyrinthectomy or a Translabyrinthine Surgical Approach
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cochlear Implant for Unilateral Acoustic Neuroma and Meniere's Disease. Completed, enrolled 10 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this project is to determine whether subjects who have undergone labyrinthectomy or a translabyrinthine surgical approach as the treatment for vestibular schwannoma or Meniere's disease benefit from cochlear implantation on speech perception and localization tasks. If the auditory nerve is able to transmit this signal effectively, then these two populations may be able to utilize the combination of electric (in the affected ear) and acoustic (in the non-affected ear) information for improved speech perception in noise and localization as reportedly experienced in other unilateral sensorineural hearing loss populations.
