PATIENCE - NTM Study

The primary objective of PATIENCE is to develop a standardized approach to the treatment of NTM in CF patients with a diagnosis of NTM disease.

Single-Sided Deafness and Asymmetric Hearing Loss Post-Approval Study

This is a multicenter research study to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of cochlear implantation in adults and children with single-sided deafness and asymmetric hearing loss. Approval for cochlear implantation for single-sided deafness and asymmetric hearing loss was recently obtained by MED-EL Corporation; the FDA requires a post-approval study examining the long-term effects of cochlear implantation in single-sided deafness and asymmetric hearing loss. Data from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill reporting on 37 clinical trial subjects with single-sided deafness and asymmetric hearing loss provided the bulk of the evidence used to support this approval. The present study design is a replication of that clinical trial protocol with only necessary modifications to construct a feasible post-approval study protocol. Data from this study has been published and demonstrate significant improvements in speech perception in noise, localization, and quality of life.

Adapting Community-based Task-shifting for the COVID-19 response among Underserved Populations in NC

This study is partnering with communities to identify the best ways to provide COVID-19 testing and vaccines to people who have been disproportionately affected by COVID-19. This includes communities of color, essential workers, immigrants and migrants, people in rural areas, and people with chronic diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure. We want to train community outreach workers and peer recruiters from community and faith-based organizations to help reach these underserved populations with COVID-19 testing and COVID-19 vaccines - a strategy known as "community-based task shifting." Thus, we will be conducting focus groups and theater testing sessions and questionnaires with patients who have received COVID-19 health services and focus groups and interviews with key stakeholders and theater testing sessions and questionnaires with individuals who work in community outreach or peer health education organizations for COVID-19 health services.
