NCT04271761
Brief Summary:
This investigation is a single-centre, prospective, single-arm, post-market, non-interventional, pilot clinical investigation designed to characterize microphone sensitivity and maximum stable gain of the Cochlear Carina System.
Detailed Description:
The totally implanted Carina System is an active middle ear implant where all components are implanted under the skin. Placing a microphone under the skin affects its acoustic sensitivity and vibration sensitivity. Software is now available to enable non-intrusive microphone measurements in existing patients with the Carina device, through a wireless link to the implant. Detailed knowledge of the acoustic sensitivity of the implanted microphone and objectively measured maximum stable gain, and its inter-individual variability, will allow more accurate calculation of overall system performance, and thereby more accurate prediction of clinical outcomes.
Subjects will attend one scheduled study visit to be assessed; several objective acoustic measurements will be performed that do not require active participation from the subject. No data monitoring committee will be used for this clinical investigation.
