RecruitingDevice studyInvestigation of a Device to Deliver Intra-Operative Therapeutic Hypothermia for Hearing Preservation in Cochlear ImplantationThe goal of this interventional clinical study is to investigate the use of mild therapeutic hypothermia for preservation of residual hearing in cochlear implant surgery. The main questions the trial aims to answer are: 1. Is mild therapeutic hypothermia safe for use during cochlear implantation? 2. Is mild therapeutic hypothermia effective at preserving residual hearing after cochlear implantation? Participants will receive mild therapeutic hypothermia therapy during cochlear implant surgery. Researchers will compare results from those receiving the therapy to those from a control group (individuals receiving no therapy).
