Hearing devices may be classified as sound-producing hearing aids (SPHAs), electrically stimulating devices (cochlear implants, CIs), and vibratory hearing aids (VHAs).51 Because patients may lose physiologic cochlear amplification (positive recruitment, loss of otoacoustic emissions [OAE] hearing devic...

A computing system provides an interface through which to receive self-characterizations of hearing performance and the like from candidates for hearing device implantation and from hearing device recipients. Provided with a candidate's pre-implantation self-characterization, the computing system searches th...
Leave-out-one meta-analysis, showing the longitudinal association of hearing aid use and any cognitive decline eFigure 7. Forest plot showing the pooled ratio of means of cognitive test scores before and after the use of hearing restorative devices, stratified by the cognitive test used eFigure...
For many years, the fields of inner ear pharmacology and hearing devices have progressed in parallel with limited interaction. Recently, there has been a considerable advancement in our understanding of the inner ear and its pathologies. Cochlear implantation is now being adapted for patients with co...
Implantation of individuals with more residual hearing is a concern owing to the possible development of better devices that may make use of residual hearing within the lifetime of implanted children if not that of adults. Preservation of residual hearing would be a desirable outcome of implant ...

Cochlear implantation is a surgical procedure that aims to restore hearing for individuals with qualifying hearing loss through the implantation of an electrode array into the cochlea, intended to provide direct stimulation of the cochlear nerve. ...
Abstract Objective : A small number of multichannel cochlear implant (CI) recipients require reimplantation. This study describes the causes of failure, surgical technique, and hearing outcomes in a consecutive series of 16 patients undergoing reimplantation of multichannel devices. We hypothesize that ...
