• Early Feasibility Study of the Acclaim Cochlear Implant System (Early Feasibility Study of the Acclaim Cochlear Implant System) Rochester, Minn.

  The purpose of the study is to evaluate performance of the Acclaim Cochlear Implant System (“System”) and determine what design changes, if any, are required to optimize performance prior to a pivotal study.

• Implantation of the HiRes90K ™ Advantage Cochlear Implant With HiFocus ™ Mid-Scala and Development of a Combined Electric and Acoustic Stimulation Technology in Adults With Partial Deafness Rochester, Minn.

  The purpose of this feasibility study is to evaluate whether low-frequency acoustic hearing sensitivity can be preserved in newly implanted adults with partial deafness (considerable low frequency acoustic hearing profiles with severe-to-profound high frequency sensorineural hearing loss) using the HiResolution™ 90K™ Advantage cochlear implant with the HiFocus™ Mid-Scala electrode to support the development of electro-acoustic stimulation technology (EAS).

• OtoVU Design and Human Factors Validation Rochester, Minn.

  The purpose of this study is to assess whether the OtoVU endoscopy system is safe, effective, and works as intended for.

  The purpose of the human factors validation study is to evaluate the usability of the OtoVU system.

  The purpose of the design validation study is to establish that the OtoVU system meets the intended use and to establish that the OtoVU system meets the user needs.
