Performance and Hearing-related Outcomes in Adults Implanted With the CI622D Dexamethasone-eluting Cochlear Implant Compared to Those Implanted With a Standard Cochlear Implant (CI622) (DETECT)
A Pivotal, Prospective, Multi-centre, Randomised Controlled, 6-month Blinded Investigation Followed by a 6-month Open-label Phase Evaluating the Efficacy of a Dexamethasone Eluting Slim Straight Electrode (CI622D) in the Reduction of Impedance as Compared to a Standard Slim Straight Electrode (CI622) in a Newly Implanted Adult Population With Post-linguistic, Bilateral, Moderately Severe to Profound Sensorineural Hearing Loss.

From the registry
This clinical study will test a newly developed cochlear implant known as CI622D. This experimental cochlear implant has been designed to slowly release a drug called dexamethasone. Dexamethasone works to ease inflammation, which is common after any surgical procedure. The goal is to learn if there are added benefits in implant performance and hearing outcomes with the dexamethasone-releasing cochlear implant (CI622D) vs. the standard cochlear implant (CI622) without dexamethasone. The study will be conducted in adults with sensorineural hearing loss, a type of hearing loss caused by damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve. The study participants will undergo a series of tests that include testing their implant and their hearing. They will also complete questionnaires to see how they rate their hearing ability and their overall general health.
Primary outcomes
- Difference in the mean impedance between CI622D and CI622
