A Safety Study of the Auditory Brainstem Implant for Pediatric Profoundly Deaf Patients
February 13, 2019 updated by: Laurie Eisenberg
A Feasibility Study of the Placement, Use, and Safety of the Nucleus 24 Auditory Brainstem Implant in Non-Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) Pediatric Patients
Current treatment options for bilateral profoundly deaf children, diagnosed with inner ear anatomical abnormalities, are limited and, in the case of absent cochleas, non-existent.
An auditory brainstem implant (ABI) places an electrode close to the auditory nucleus in the brainstem.
Children aged 2 - 5 who are not candidates for a cochlear implant, or who did not demonstrate benefit from a cochlear implant, will be implanted with an ABI and followed for 1 year for safety and a total of 3 years for preliminary efficacy.
This is a feasibility study to determine the safety of the ABI.
