Can we centralise cochlear implant surgery and keep most appointments close to home?

1 July 2021 | Robert Nash | ENTA - Auditory Implants, ENTA - Paediatrics

The NHS Five Year Forward View promoted seeing patients closer to home in order to provide better care, cut down on missed appointments and reduce costs. This encouraged the development of ‘hub and spoke’ models of care, but this model...

Quality of life after cochlear implantation in the older population

1 July 2021 | Aaron SJ Ferguson | ENTA - Auditory Implants, ENTA - Neurotology

Cochlear implants (CI) have been increasingly adopted in older adults with severe to profound hearing loss as a result of the growing and ageing world population. There is much interest in the cost-effectiveness and quality of life in CI users....

Biologics for deafness

5 July 2022 | Sangeeta Maini | ENTA - Otology

Cochlear implants are an expensive technology, yet profound hearing loss is far from a developed-world phenomenon. On the contrary, incidences of both congenital and acquired hearing losses are high in the developing world. This article explains how an initiative in...

The ear-brain connection in cochlear implant users: learning to listen again

26 June 2017 | Deniz Başkent | ENTA - Audiology - Adult, ENTA - Auditory Implants, ENTA - ENT, ENTA - Neurotology

While the cochlear implant (CI) has been a tremendous success in restoring hearing to deaf individuals, the implantation outcome still varies across CI users [1]. Some demographic factors, such as duration of deafness, and peripheral factors, such as electrode placement,...

Combined use of a hearing aid and a cochlear implant: a case study

1 July 2015 | Geoff Plant | ENTA - Audiology - Adult, ENTA - Auditory Implants

When multi-channel cochlear implants (CIs) were first introduced in the 1980s, their use was restricted to people who derived no benefit from conventional amplification. Over the past three decades, however, the criteria for CIs has been relaxed considerably, and it...
