Methods of Hearing Preservation during Cochlear Implantation
Introduction Recent advances in surgical techniques and electrode design have made residual hearing preservation during cochlear implantation (CI) possible, achievable, and desirable. Objectives The objective of this study was to review the literature regarding methods used for hearing preservation during CI surgery. Data Synthesis We performed a search in the LILACS, MEDLINE, SciELO, PubMed...
متن کاملHearing Preservation after Cochlear Implantation: UNICAMP Outcomes
Background. Electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS) is an excellent choice for people with residual hearing in low frequencies but not high frequencies and who derive insufficient benefit from hearing aids. For EAS to be effective, subjects' residual hearing must be preserved during cochlear implant (CI) surgery. Methods. We implanted 6 subjects with a CI. We used a special surgical technique and a...
متن کاملFactors affecting residual hearing preservation in cochlear implantation
The likelihood of residual hearing preservation in cochlear implantation (CI) is related to surgical factors such as type of cochleostomy (trans-fenestral vs. promontorial), use of lubricants and protective drugs, and device-related factors such as shape, length and flexibility of the array. We investigated the impact of these factors on the hearing preservation rate in adults and children with...
متن کاملA Within-Subject Comparison of Bimodal Hearing, Bilateral Cochlear Implantation, and Bilateral Cochlear Implantation With Bilateral Hearing Preservation: High-Performing Patients.
OBJECTIVE To compare speech understanding with bimodal hearing and bilateral cochlear implants (CIs). STUDY DESIGN Within-subjects, repeated-measures. METHODS Speech understanding was assessed in the following conditions: unilateral hearing aid (HA) in the non-implanted ear, unilateral CI, bimodal (CI + HA), and bilateral CI. In addition, three participants had bilateral hearing preservatio...
متن کاملA within-subjects comparison of bimodal hearing, bilateral cochlear implantation, and bilateral cochlear implantation with bilateral hearing preservation: High-performing patients
A comparison of bimodal hearing and bilateral cochlear implants (CIs) was completed using a within-subjects, repeated-measures study for eight adult sequential recipients who despite achieving incredibly high performance with the first CI, self-selected for bilateral implantation. Speech understanding was assessed with the minimum speech test battery (MSTB) as well as sentences in semi-diffuse ...
