Overview
Use of somatic cell within the prospect of regrowth in cochlea cells is under study. The tablet-based automated audiometer presents a new method for threshold hearing assessment. Similarly video conferencing, flashing lights to signal events and other telecommunications devices are under study.
Future or Investigational Therapies[1][2][3]
- Many hearing-impaired individuals use certain assistive devices in their daily lives like hearing aid, hearing implants, or telecommunication.
- Individuals can communicate by different means like telephone using telecommunications devices for the deaf. This device seems like a typewriter or word processing system and transmits typed text over the phone.
- A videophone is often used for distance communication using signing. Then mobile textphone devices came onto the marketplace for the primary time allowing simultaneous two-way text communication. In many western countries, there are telephone services so that a hearing-impaired person can communicate with a person who can hear through a human translator. Mobile phones, wireless, internet, and text messaging are starting to take over the role of telecommunications devices for the deaf.
- Other assistive devices include people who use flashing lights to signal events like a fireplace alarm, mobile vibrations, ringing a telephone, or a doorbell.
- Video conferencing is additionally a replacement technology that allows signed conversations also as permitting an English interpreter to voice and sign conversations between a person that can't hear and a hearing person, negating the necessity to use a keypad or any typing material.
- Prospective single-cohort concluded that the tablet-based automated audiometer presents a replacement method for threshold hearing assessment outside conventional sound booths. Testing with the tablet audiometer was conducted in a non-sound-treated room and characterized by the ambient noise level in the background.
Gene therapy
- There was the success of the regrowth of cochlea cells in test subjects by a research team in 2005. This study was conducted on pigs as test subjects. The conclusion of the research is important to note, however, that the regrowth of cochlear hair cells does not imply the restoration of hearing sensitivity as the sensory cells may not make connections with neurons that carry the signals from hair cells of cochlea in the inner ear to the temporal region of the brain. But further study is still going on.
- A team led by Stanford University is pioneering somatic cell research within the prospect of regrowth in cochlea cells.
