Hearables: in-ear sensing devices for recording of physiological signals

5 January 2022 | Colver Ken Howe Ne, Jameel Muzaffar, Manohar Bance (Prof) | ENTA - Audiology - Adult, ENTA - Audiology - Diagnostic

Colver Ken Howe Ne, Jameel Muzaffar and Manohar Bance discuss the potential of hearable systems to monitor physiological signals (e.g. from brain or heart, blood pressure, body temperature) unobtrusively. Such adaptations require high-quality sensors and sophisticated de-noising signal processing on...

Aided cortical assessment: uses in a paediatric hearing implant centre

3 November 2022 | Julie Koşaner | ENTA - Audiology - Adult, ENTA - Auditory Implants, ENTA - Audiology - Diagnostic

When can an aided cortical assessment help decision making in a child’s hearing journey? In this article, the author demonstrates the application using an enlightening case study approach. A device, be it a conventional hearing aid or hearing implant, ideally,...

Why hearing above 8 kHz matters more than you think

6 November 2024 | Nicole Rivero, Srikanta K Mishra | ENTA - Audiology - Adult, ENTA - Audiology - Diagnostic

This review explores the significance of extended high-frequency hearing loss (above 8 kHz) and why it may be worth doing clinically more frequently. There are many conditions that may hide underneath a normal audiogram, and one of the easiest to...

Selective upper airway stimulation

1 May 2016 | Clemens Heiser, Kim Ah-See (Prof) | ENTA - Laryngology / Swallowing / Voice

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is one of the most common diseases in industrialised countries and is characterised by an intermittent obstruction of the upper airway during sleep. The standard treatment for OSA is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, which...

Triple semicircular canal occlusion and Meniere’s disease: a rising alternative treatment?

7 January 2021 | Geo Thachil, Georgios Kontorinis | ENTA - ENT, ENTA - Head & Neck, ENTA - Otology, ENTA - Vestibular Disorders

Patients with dizziness form a large part of the workload for ENT surgeons. In the overwhelming majority of cases, management will be medical and successful. However, occasionally some patients present a challenge when they have not responded to conventional treatments....

Tele-audiometry – a ShoeBOX solution

1 July 2014 | Nina Reade | ENTA - Audiology - Diagnostic, ENTA - Audiology - Paediatric, ENTA - Auditory Implants

Access to hearing assessment is a global challenge. In relation to the global burden of hearing loss World Health Organisation’s (WHO’s) recent estimate (2013) is that 360 million people in the world have disabling hearing impairment. Two-thirds of these people...

Robotics in rhinology – fantasy or the future?

3 September 2024 | Isabelle JM Williams | ENTA - ENT, ENTA - Rhinology / Sinus

Robotic surgery is advancing, but its use in rhinology lags due to spatial constraints and high costs. Innovations in flexible robots may bridge this gap in the future. We are in a new era, one of artificial intelligence and robotics....

The emergence of in-office ventilation tubes for the treatment of otitis media in children

7 January 2025 | Nathan C Page, João Pimentel | ENTA - Otology

In-office tympanostomy tube systems offer a quicker, anaesthesia-free alternative to traditional surgery for children, with promising outcomes and reduced costs. Tympanostomy tube or grommet insertion is the most common surgery performed on children worldwide. Whilst a relatively short and straightforward...
