The Laryngeal Pacemaker – developing an innovative solution for bilateral vocal fold paralysis
Bilateral vocal fold paralysis is a difficult condition to manage, with surgical interventions previously limited to tracheostomy or arytenoidectomy. Re-innervation surgery has been developed and, in recent years, a Laryngeal Pacemaker is now in clinical trials. We speak to two...The Laryngeal Pacemaker – developing an innovative solution for bilateral vocal fold paralysis

Liver function assessment in glandular fever
This month’s Editors’ Choice is a systematic review of the role of liver assessment in patients with glandular fever. Admission of patients with sore throat constitutes a significant burden of acute work for paediatric and adult ENT services as well...Pre-clinical development of magnetic delivery of therapy to middle and inner ears
Why are we developing this technology? A key problem in drug delivery is getting the therapy to the right place in the body, which is especially challenging for targets that are small, deep and are protected or surrounded by anatomical...2022 Hearing Technology Innovator Awards
Hearing Health & Technology Matters (HHTM), an online resource for hearing professionals and consumers with hearing loss, has announced a call for submissions for the third annual Hearing Technology Innovator Awards™. Through the annual awards programme, HHTM honours technological innovation...Interacoustics introduces the game-changing Audible Contrast Threshold (ACT™) test
For more than a century, hearing aids have been prescribed based solely on the pure tone audiogram.With the introduction of ACT, Interacoustics goes beyond the audiogram, and is now able to address the number one complaint from people with hearing loss: hearing conversations in noisy situations.Semi implantable bone conduction devices: challenges and developments
Bone conduction mechanisms and history of bone conduction aids Bone conduction hearing devices work by stimulating hair cells via the bone conduction hearing pathways. These pathways are less well understood than the air conduction pathways, but recent research has shown...
