About this study
The purpose of this study is to measure the changes in the middle ear mechanics or the transfer function in cochlear implant recipients and compare those changes with the middle ear transfer function measured in individuals with unilateral otosclerosis.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate.
