Cochlear Implants: Clinical Applications

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Springer Handbook of Auditory Research ((SHAR,volume 20))

Abstract

Over the past 30 years, hearing care clinicians have increasingly relied on cochlear implants to restore auditory functions in selected patients with advanced sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Inventory data from manufacturers for the last 10 years indicate consistent yearly increases of more than 20% in numbers of devices placed. In this same period criteria for implantation in candidates of all ages have been broadened based on refined diagnosis and increased benefits with implantation. Thus the evolution of the state of the art of cochlear implantation has been driven by an interchange between technological advances and clinical trends.
