Study Summary

The purpose of this investigation is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the MED-EL Electric-Acoustic System (EAS), a medical device that combines the use of a cochlear implant with an external electric-acoustic processor designed to provide benefit in speech perception and sound quality to individuals with a sensorineural hearing loss with minimal changes in residual hearing. The acoustic component of the processor will aid residual acoustic hearing in low frequency ranges, while the cochlear implant and electric component of the processor will be used to electrically stimulate the auditory nerve across a wide range of frequencies necessary for speech perception.

Primary Outcome

CUNY sentences in noise are scored as the percent correct of words in each sentence. The total percent correct for preoperative hearing aid use was subtracted from the total percent correct for EAS at 12 months giving a percentage point improvement in speech perception with EAS.
