Comparative Study of Tympanic Membrane Regeneration Therapy for Chronic Otitis Media

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study compared tympanic membrane regeneration therapy (TMRT) with conventional tympanoplasty (CTP) for the treatment of chronic suppurative perforated otitis media (COM). TMRT has many advantages over CTP as a surgical treatment for COM. In particular, significant differences were observed in operative time, hearing improvement, and patient ...

Multi‐Frequency Electrocochleography Results in Fewer Drop Alarms During Cochlear Implant Insertion

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A novel multi‐frequency electrocochleography (ECochG) algorithm used during cochlear implant electrode insertion is associated with fewer drop alarms and an increase in optimal insertion track patterns. Multi‐frequency ECochG may provide a more accurate assessment of the cochlear microenvironment when compared to single‐frequency ECochG.

Hearing Preservation Rates After Cochlear Implantation Using Soft Surgery Techniques

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To determine if hearing preservation rates after cochlear implantation varied over time with soft surgery techniques. Methods The hearing preservation rate over time in adult cochlear implant patients over 10 years was analyzed. The association between hearing preservation rate and sex, age, perioperative steroid dose, and type of ...

COMPUTERIZED DATABASE SYSTEM FOR PURE TONE AUDIOMETRY

open access: yesNippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 1993
The management and storage of pure tone audiometry data creates a major problem for otolaryngological clinics. We have devised a new computerized database system to overcome this problem. The hardware involved includes multiple audiometers and computers interfaced with a glassfiber local area network (Pi-Net).

Longitudinal Evaluation of Otoacoustic Emissions as a Screening Tool for High‐Frequency Hearing Loss in Adolescents

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To investigate the association between distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) signal‐to‐noise ratios (SNRs) and pure‐tone audiometry (PTA) thresholds in adolescents, both cross‐sectionally at age 18 and longitudinally by evaluating whether DPOAE SNRs at age 13 predict high‐frequency hearing loss (HFHL) at age 18.
