Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Hearing loss causes serious disability of smooth communication, so the medical treatment using hearing aid or cochlea implantation are important to get out from this situations. A middle ear implant system will improve the hearing and communication ability of mixed hearing loss patients who cannot use hearing aids for medical reasons or who are dissatisfied with other hearing devices. A middle ear implant system has already used clinicaly in Europe and already confirmed the venefit of this system for European population. In this clinical research, we confirm the middle ear implant system venefit in Japanese mixed hearing loss patients who cannot use hearing aids for medical reasons or who are dissatisfied with other hearing devices and also confirm the safetiness of the middle ear implant system in Japanese.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

The therapeutic effects are evaluated at 5 month after the middle ear implantation surgery, using the free field speech recognition threshold test.

In the speech recognition threshold test with quiet, marked recovery is defined as any recovery of the maximum speech recognition score (%) by speech recognition threshold test using 67S or 57S Japanese monosyyrable word table (Japan Audiological Society 1967, 1957).

Key inclusion criteria

Adult conductive hearing loss and mixed hearing loss with exteranal or middle ear disease patients.

1) Remaining hearing loss despite of the tympanoplasty or stapes surgery has done, and listening the conversation is insufficiency by air conductive HA. Or inflammation of middle ear and external canal get worth due to using HA.
2) External ear malfomation with conductive hearing loss and mixed hearing loss, who cannot use conventional hearing aids or who are unsatisfied with them and do not achieve sufficient benefit.

Corresponding to the bone conduction hearing frequencies listed as follows
1) 500Hz is under 45dB
2) 1000Hz is under 50dB
3) 2000Hz and 4000Hz are under 65dB
