Robotic‐Assisted Electrode Array Insertion Improves Stability of Acoustic Hearing Thresholds

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the impact of robotic‐assisted electrode array insertion on rates of delayed‐onset hearing loss (DOHL). DOHL occurred in 22 of 60 subjects (37%) in the manual cohort compared with 2 of 29 subjects (7%) in the robotic‐assisted cohort, representing a statistically significant reduction (p = 0.002).

Making a Difference from Day One: The Urgent Need for Universal Neonatal Hearing Screening

Children
Neonatal hearing screening (NHS) is a critical public health measure for early identification of hearing loss, ensuring timely access to interventions that can dramatically improve a child’s language development, cognitive abilities, and social inclusion.

Abnormal Pitch Perception Produced by Cochlear Implant Stimulation

PLoS ONE, 2014
Contemporary cochlear implants with multiple electrode stimulation can produce good speech perception but poor music perception. Hindered by the lack of a gold standard to quantify electric pitch, relatively little is known about the nature and extent of

Early Spectral Resolution Predicts Later Speech Recognition in Adult Cochlear Implant Recipients

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In 531 ears from 498 adult cochlear implant recipients, spectral modulation detection (EasyQSMD) stabilized within 1 week post‐activation and significantly predicted later speech recognition outcomes. Early spectral resolution thresholds can identify potential poor performers during the critical first month, enabling earlier implementation of targeted ...

Feasibility of Minimally Invasive Robot-Assisted Retrofacial Access to the Stapedius Muscle for Applications in Objective Cochlear Implant Fitting: A Cadaveric Study. [PDF]

Int J Med Robot
ABSTRACT Background Accurate setting of maximum comfort levels (MCL) during cochlear implant (CI) fitting is essential but subjective, especially in non‐cooperative patients. The stapedius reflex (SR) correlates with the MCL and offers an objective measure.

Attrition in Cochlear Implant Research: Sociodemographic, Audiologic, and Performance Variables

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In a retrospective review of attrition patterns for participants in a clinical research study, sociodemographic variables were not significantly different between those who elected to withdraw and those who completed the study. Those in the withdrawal group had poorer low‐frequency residual hearing, were less likely to be electric‐acoustic stimulation ...

Labyrinthine Abnormalities on MRI in Untreated Otosclerosis: Prevalence and Clinical Relevance

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In untreated otosclerosis with labyrinthine symptoms, delayed 3D FLAIR MRI rarely demonstrates endolymphatic hydrops but frequently reveals blood–labyrinth barrier (BLB) disruption. BLB enhancement is spatially associated with cochlear endosteal and round window involvement and increases with the severity of the hearing loss phenotype.

Assessment of Hearing Health Among Adults in Rural Health Clinics

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Rural health clinics are a critical healthcare system tasked with improving health in rural communities. This study recruited 403 adults from 10 rural healthcare clinics throughout rural Kentucky, mostly within Appalachia, to screen for hearing loss and evaluate the utilization of diagnostic hearing healthcare and found that 70% of participants ...
