Summary: To evaluate the function of vestibular system in patients with chronic suppurative otitis media safe type.

Summary: Background:Disorders of hearing instability (HI) are poorly characterized and ineffectively treated. HI can cause fluctuations in hearing thresholds and speech understanding. Researchers want to use a specialized form of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and blood tests to learn more about HI.Objective:To characterize a cohort of people with HI and to correlate HI with other data, including hearing...

Summary: Otitis media (OM) is one of the most common childhood infections and is a major cause of morbidity in children and results as being the first cause of antibiotic prescription among children in developed countries . An artificial intelligence-based tool could help physicians refine their diagnosis

Summary: In many patients with an acute unilateral vestibular deafferentiation (uVD) syndrome symptoms are expected to resolve spontaneously because of central compensation. However, more detailed observations have revealed that 29-66 % of uVD patients develop disabling chronic dizziness lasting >1 year after the acute event. Identifying predictors of chronic dizziness would allow patients at high risk to ...

Summary: Otitis media is more common in young children and it is estimated that 75% of all children experience at least one episode before the age of three. Otitis media is one of the common pediatric diagnoses and recurrent episodes account for the most commonly performed surgical procedure. Despite this a high degree of inaccuracy exists in diagnosis of this condition which depends on subjective assessme...

Summary: This clinical study evaluates the efficacy of the autologous blood-derived product called platelet- and extracellular vesicle-rich plasma as a supplement to the surgical treatment of chronic tympanic membrane perforations.Half of the participants will be treated with standard surgical procedure called tympanoplasty and addition of platelet- and extracellular vesicle-rich plasma. Another half will ...

Summary: Strengthening outpatient low respiratory tract infection surveillance to document the burden of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)

Summary: This pilot study wants to determine to which extent SPCCT allows obtaining images with improved quality and diagnostic confidence when compared to standard Dual Energy CT (DECT), both with and without contrast agent injection.Depending on the anatomical structures/organs to be visualized during CT examinations, different scanning protocols are performed with quite variable ionizing radiation doses...

Summary: The objective of this study is to clinically develop and evaluate a machine learning approach to improve the performance and data interpretation of the PhotoniCare OtoSight Middle Ear Scope in pediatric patients presenting at the primary care office for suspected ear infections. In this observational study, results of OtoSight imaging will not affect patient standard of care.

Summary: The investigators seek to conduct a prospective, longitudinal study to identify the dynamic changes in nasopharyngeal (NP) colonization patterns and acute otitis media (AOM) etiology involving antibiotic-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) and Haemophilus influenzae (Hflu).

Summary: Multicenter, randomized, 2-arm parallel-group, double blind, placebo-controlled study in patients suffering from Otomycosis. This study will compare the efficacy and safety of SVT-15652 otic solution to that of Placebo, when administering one vial twice daily during 14 days.

Summary: Inner ear trauma during chronic otitis surgery is one of the major concerns of Otolaryngology. Hearing thresholds or semicircular canals were investigated with this purpose. The investigator's aim is to test the utricle for surgical trauma.
