About this trial
The aim of this clinical investigation is to demonstrate the performance, clinical benefit and safety of commercial cochlear implant systems. Speech performance and subjective hearing results, and comparison with cochlear implant results available in literature, is intended to demonstrate the performance and clinical benefit of the cochlear implant systems investigated in this study.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Aged 18 years or older (at time of consent).
Clinically established post-linguistic moderately severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss, in the ear to be implanted.
Compromised functional hearing with hearing aid(s) or unlikely to receive benefit with hearing aid(s) in the ear to be implanted.
Cochlear implant candidate as determined by the Principal Investigator. Meets local candidacy criteria for cochlear implantation.
Disqualifiers
Prior cochlear implantation in the ear to be implanted.
Unrealistic expectations regarding the possible benefit, risks and limitations that are inherent to the surgical procedure and prosthetic device as determined by the investigator.
Any contraindications for cochlear implantation listed in the relevant product physician's guide (to be specified per sub-investigation).
Unable or unwilling to comply with the requirements of the clinical investigation as determined by the Investigator.
Trial population
Post lingually deafened adult adults who are a candidate for cochlear implantation.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Mean within-participant change in the word recognition score in quiet
Percent correct word score from preimplantation to post-activation in the implanted ear. Score range: 0 to 100% correct, where a higher score is a better outcome.
Secondary outcomes
Incidence of adverse events and device deficiencies
Proportion of participants who experience an adverse event and the proportion of participants who experience a device deficiency
Mean within-participant change in Speech Spatial Qualities questionnaire (SSQ-12)
Speech, Spatial and Qualities of Hearing Scale Global Score (SSQ-12). Scores range from 0 to 10, where high scores indicate greater ability (less hearing disability).
Mean within-participant change in word recognition score in quiet
Percent correct word score from preimplantation to post-activation in the implanted ear. Score range: 0 to 100% correct, where a higher score is a better outcome.
Mean within-participant change in Living with Cochlear implants questionnaire (LivCI)
Living with Cochlear Implants Questionnaire (LivCI) evaluates the impact of a hearing device on four domains, Participation (range 0 to 12), Psychosocial \& Wellbeing (range 0 to21), Stigma (range 0 to 15) and Management \& Aesthetics (range 0 to 18), where a higher domain score indicates a positive patient report.
