NCT05566353

Brief Summary

Following a sufficient delay after the cochlear implantation and initial implant activation, the patient will return to the hospital for follow-up visits for equipment maintenance and auditory performance evaluation only once per year. This frequency might appear either insufficient, in which case an additional patient check-up will be arranged, or excessive if patient performances and implant adjustments are stable. Using at-home testing tool for remote hearing performance monitoring can thus appear advantageous for both patients and clinicians, allowing to avoid an unnecessary journey to the implantation reference center for the first and to diminish a number of unscheduled medical appointments for the second.

Study Arms (1)

Patients followed at the implantation reference centers

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients eligible for implant processor renewal in 2 years and corresponding to inclusion criteria will be enrolled during their routine check-up appointment at the implantation reference centers of the University Hospitals of Montpellier and Toulouse. Patients will be their own controls through the use of their medical history data.

Other: Remote Check

Interventions

Remote Check is a remote monitoring tool which permits patients with Cochlear Nucleus CP1000 or CP1150 processors to complete hearing tests (pure-tone and speech-in-voice audiometry, electrode impedance measures, implant functioning assessment) at home,

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects-users of uni- or bilateral cochlear implants (Cl24RE, series 400, 500 and 600) and Cochlear Nucleus processor CP1000 or CP1150 during one year minimum
  • Subjects who have already renewed their processor at least once
  • Subjects implanted for more than 5 years
  • Over 20 years old

  • Patients unable to give oral informed consent
  • Patients residing in geographical zones with limited internet access
  • Subjects deprived of liberty by juridical or administrative decision
  • Patients subjected to legal protection measures (guardianship or curatorship)
  • Subjects for whom French is not a native language
