Aim1. To investigate the long-term effects of early detection and intervention of hearing loss on the development of children with congenital bilateral hearing impairment. 2. To define factors in early childhood that are able to predict…
To measure the 18F-fluoride activity of otosclerosis in patients diagnosed with otosclerosis (by audiometry, CT scan and/or operative findings) in a different stage of their disease. If this diagnostic proves to be reliable and reproducible, this…
The main objective of this study is to test the feasibility of using DTI in combination with tractography to visualize differences between a degenerated and normal auditory nerve.
The primary objective of the present study is to increase our insight in the neural processing in pre-lingually deaf and implanted patients, regarding the prediction and explanation of postoperative differences in performance within this specific…
binaural hearing in children and teenagers with a severe hearing loss with bilateral hearing devices
determine the effect of a HA in combination with a CI in children as well asdetermine the effect of bilateral cochlear implantation.
The RIVM, UMCU and VUmc collectively will perform a prospective study in which the screening value of ADAM12 and PP13 for chromosomal abnormalities and adverse pregnancy outcome will be investigated.
The primary objective of the present study is to increase our insight in the neural processing of speech in pre-lingually deaf CI patients regarding the prediction and explanation of postoperative differences in performance within this specific…
1. to develop and improve new and existing MR sequences for inner ear imaging at 7T2. to investigate the clinical added value of 7T imaging (in comparison to 3T imaging)
Single-stage bone-anchored hearing implant surgery in the pediatric population using the BHX implant
To compare implant loss between single-stage BAHI surgery (test group) and two-stage BAHI surgery (control group) in children. Furthermore, to compare soft tissue status, time to loading and duration of surgery between groups.
Through this research, we want to further investigate the concept of ear molding through the use of the EarWell Infant Corrective System, this time in the Dutch population. We hope to investigate the opinion on the treatment within the Dutch…
To compare implant loss between single-stage BAHI surgery (test group) and two-stage BAHI surgery (control group) in children. Furthermore, to compare soft tissue status, time to loading and duration of surgery between groups.
The goal of this study is to collect a large cohort of patients mainly with NSHI. In the study cohort, the genetic causes underlying the NSHI will be determined which can be either in known or novel deafness genes. Also, the clinical characteristics…
Firstly, comparison of DTI outcome variables between the auditory nerve of a deaf ear with that of a normal ear. Secondly, in patients who receive a CI, DTI measures will be compared to measures derived from electrically evoked compound action…
Main objective: To map the natural course of the visual and hearing deterioration in Usher Syndrome type 2 for upcoming genetic therapy studies.Secondary Objective 1): To determine a. the necessary type of (combined) examinations, b. the sample size…
