The osseointegrated steady state implant 2 (OSIA2) system was developed to provide hearing through bone conduction while avoiding complications previously reported in children using percutaneous devices.
Placebo-Controlled Study Shown Viable in Evaluating Efficacy of Balloon Eustachian Tuboplasty
The multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial protocol was shown to be feasible and demonstrated the need for blinded randomized controlled trials to objectively measure the efficacy of balloon Eustachian tuboplasty.
New study findings suggest that cochlear implantees have a dampened emotional experience with music
People with bilateral cochlear implantation have diminished perception of musical attributes, which limits their emotional response when listening
Inconsistency in Findings that Intraoperative Electrocochleography Improves Hearing Preservation in Cochlear Implantation
Electrocochleography (ECoG) has historically been used for measuring hearing thresholds and identifying endolymphatic hydrops in Ménière’s disease. More recently, ECoG application has expanded to monitor electrical potentials during cochlear implantation as an indirect measure of cochlear trauma.
QOL Factors Impact Patient Decision to Undergo Cochlear Implantation
Although functional outcome expectations are similar between candidates who elect to receive or forgo cochlear implants, the latter have higher baseline CI-specific quality of life abilities.
Higher Prevalence of Hearing Loss Among Cancer Survivors
Findings suggest that cancer survivors have a significantly higher prevalence of both audiometry-confirmed and self-reported hearing loss than the general population.
Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Effective in the Treatment of Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss?
Randomized controlled trials with standardized hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatment protocols and attention to social determinants of health and other confounders are desperately needed to establish efficacy.
Are Simulated or 3D-Printed Temporal Bones as Useful for Training as Cadaveric Bones?
A potential solution for lack of cadaveric temoral bone has been the use of virtual or 3D-printed temporal bones to simulate the drilling exercise and provide specimens to teach anatomy and procedures.
Two-Stage Auricle Reconstruction Method Effective for Congenital Microtia
This two-stage surgical auricle reconstruction is a versatile, reliable, and effective congenital microtia treatment.
Self-Localization of Symptoms Useful When Evaluating Aural Discomfort
Patients presenting with aural discomfort are commonly encountered in otolaryngology. Part of the challenge in diagnosing these patients is the variability in their descriptions of the location, severity, and quality of aural discomfort.
