However, the audiological outcomes of these implants can vary widely, and one reason for this is suboptimal electrode placement. The gold standard for measuring electrode positions is computed tomography (CT) scans, but they are expensive and expose patients to additional radiation, which is especially harmful for children.\n\nThis study investigates an alternative approach using impedance telemetry data to estimate electrode positions without exposing patients to radiation. For this purpose, an extended telemetry version of a CE-certified cochlear implant software is used. The advanced impedance telemetry software can measure impedance subcomponents with improved measurement resolution that could be used for more accurate estimation of electrode insertion depth using specially designed estimation software.\n\nUltimately, the investigators want to demonstrate the potential to improve audiological outcomes of cochlear implant recipients without exposing them to additional radiation."}, "eligibilityModule"=>{"sex"=>"ALL", "stdAges"=>["ADULT", "OLDER_ADULT"], "minimumAge"=>"18 years", "samplingMethod"=>"NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE", "studyPopulation"=>"Adult subjects eligible for a MED-EL cochlear implant of the MED-EL portfolio (Flex series array) and who meet the additional inclusion/exclusion will be approached for participation in this study.", "healthyVolunteers"=>false, "eligibilityCriteria"=>"Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Informed Consent signed by the subject\n* Subjects scheduled for CI surgery according to clinical routine\n* Subjects who will receive a cochlear implant of the MED-EL portfolio (FLEX series arrays)\n* No radiological contraindications\n* Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures for the duration of the study\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Lack of compliance with any inclusion criteria\n* Subjects incapable of giving informed consent\n* Age under 18 years\n* Pregnancy"}, "identificationModule"=>{"nctId"=>"NCT06223724", "acronym"=>"PATHOS", "briefTitle"=>"Status Telemetry for Cochlear Implantations", "organization"=>{"class"=>"OTHER", "fullName"=>"Insel Gruppe AG, University Hospital Bern"}, "officialTitle"=>"Prospective Study of Status Telemetry for Cochlear Implantations", "orgStudyIdInfo"=>{"id"=>"PATHOS"}}, "armsInterventionsModule"=>{"armGroups"=>[{"label"=>"Cochlear implant electrode insertion depth estimation", "description"=>"Electrode insertion depth estimation using impedance telemetry data measured during cochlear implantation and at three regular follow-up visits", "interventionNames"=>["Device: STOP", "Device: MAESTRO"]}], "interventions"=>[{"name"=>"STOP", "type"=>"DEVICE", "description"=>"Software to measure impedance telemetry data", "armGroupLabels"=>["Cochlear implant electrode insertion depth estimation"]}, {"name"=>"MAESTRO", "type"=>"DEVICE", "description"=>"Software to measure impedance telemetry data", "armGroupLabels"=>["Cochlear implant electrode insertion depth estimation"]}]}, "contactsLocationsModule"=>{"locations"=>[{"zip"=>"3008", "city"=>"Bern", "status"=>"RECRUITING", "country"=>"Switzerland", "facility"=>"Inselspital, Bern University Hospital Department of ENT, Head and Neck Surgery", "geoPoint"=>{"lat"=>46.94809, "lon"=>7.44744}}], "centralContacts"=>[{"name"=>"Stephan Schraivogel, MSc", "role"=>"CONTACT", "email"=>"stephan.schraivogel@unibe.ch", "phone"=>"+41 31 632 76 15"}, {"name"=>"Wilhelm Wimmer, Prof.", "role"=>"CONTACT", "email"=>"wilhelm.wimmer@tum.de"}], "overallOfficials"=>[{"name"=>"Marco Caversaccio, Prof. Dr. med.", "role"=>"PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR", "affiliation"=>"Inselspital, Bern University Hospital Department of ENT, Head and Neck Surgery"}]}, "ipdSharingStatementModule"=>{"ipdSharing"=>"NO"}, "sponsorCollaboratorsModule"=>{"leadSponsor"=>{"name"=>"Insel Gruppe AG, University Hospital Bern", "class"=>"OTHER"}, "responsibleParty"=>{"type"=>"SPONSOR"}}}}
