The biopsychosocial model can be employed to explain how an individual interacts with their body’s structure, functions and involvement in daily activities. The ICF is also a way to facilitate patient centred care. By applying ICF in audiology, healthcare professionals can interact with one another in both clinical and research contexts. This research mainly focuses on ICF’s relevance and application to audiology and provides examples of how it should be used clinically to evaluate and treat adults with hearing loss.","PeriodicalId":13287,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"142 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88962715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The extent of mouth opening (inter incisal distance) along with the viability and vascularity of the flap was evaluated clinically over a period 6 months. In our study, complications like flap necrosis, flap loss, infection and obstructive sialadenitis were not observed. However, intra-oral hair growth was seen in our 7 patients, extra-oral scar at the donor site was seen in all our patients and salivary fistula formation was reported in 1 of the patient which underwent fistula repair later. Mean mouth opening of 37 mm was achieved at 6 months post-operatively, with a mean increase of 31.5 mm. No relapse was encountered, even at last follow-up.
