About this trial

The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the continued safety of the iotaSOFT Insertion System when used by a surgeon to assist with inserting a CI electrode array in one ear per subject

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Advanced Bionics HiFocus SlimJ

Cochlear Slim Straight

MED-EL Flex 24 and 28

Age 12 years or older at the time of CI surgery.

Disqualifiers

Prior cochlear implantation in the ear to be implanted.

Ossification or any other cochlear anomaly that might prevent complete insertion of the electrode array or present an increased risk of aberrant insertion.

Craniofacial abnormality, temporal squamosal skull thickness less than 3mm, major cochlear lesions (e.g., fibrosis, fracture, or ossification), or cochlear malformations.

Deafness due to lesions of the acoustic nerve or central auditory pathway.

Trial population

A minimum of 50 subjects with sensorineural hearing loss and who have received a cochlear implant using the commercially available iotaSOFT insertion system or are scheduled for unilateral or bilateral cochlear implant surgery will be enrolled, such that a minimum of 50 subjects/ears using iotaSOFT will be attempted
