In this study we’ve verified the hypothesis that cochlear implantation according to individually calculated depth of insertion affects hearing preservation in children with preoperative substantial hearing. In the retrospective analysis of 19 children implanted with Cochlear Nucleus CI422 electrode in Institute of Physiology and Pathology of Hearing in Warsaw between 2010–2011 the relation between cochlea size and insertion depth angle was calculated on the basis of radiological data and hearing preservation rate, calculated according to Hearing Preservation Classification. [1] Hearing Preservation rate for the whole group at activation was 73%, after 24 months – 67%. Mean value of insertion depth angle was 375° (SD = 17°); mean value of calculated length of cochlear duct was 34.67 mm (SD = 1.91); mean calculated linear insertion depth of the electrode array was 23.1 mm (SD = 1.62). We did not find any statistically significant difference between hearing preservation rate and angle of insertion and between hearing preservation rate and linear insertion depth for the analysed group in any of three intervals: activation, 12 months follow up and 24 months follow up. Preoperative measurement of cochlea size and its specific parameters, like linear insertion depth, do not influence hearing preservation after implantation. Low level of hearing preservation rate in some cases cannot be explained with intracochlear position of the array (>450°) in computed tomography.","PeriodicalId":214555,"journal":{"name":"Nowa Audiofonologia","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123753603","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 Central Statistical Office estimates that there are approximately 6 million people affected in Poland. People with hearing loss have different treatment options. They most often choose classical hearing aids, but not in all cases it is possible to use such devices. In such situations, the patient is usually qualified for hearing implant surgery.Aim: The aim of the study was to analyse data published by the Ministry of Health in 2016 on diseases of the nose, paranasal sinuses, ear, throat and larynx in Poland. The published data make it possible to assess the availability of health services in the field of middle ear implants and bone conduction implants provided throughout the country.Material and method: The analysis was based on the Health Needs Maps (HNM) published by the Ministry of Health for diseases of the nose, paranasal sinuses, ear, throat and larynx. The HNMs were prepared separately for each voivodship.Results: The data concerned hospitalizations completed in 2014. According to the report, 227 hospitalizations was performed in the whole country, the highest number was in the Mazowieckie voivodship – 66 (30% of all hospitalizations). The services were provided to patients aged 1–69 years. The leading centre which performed the most procedures in this area was the Institute of Physiology and Pathology of Hearing in Kajetany.Conclusions: Middle ear implants and temporal bone anchored implants are relatively new devices. The material analysis showed that the availability of this type of devices is relatively uniform across the country. However, most of the services related to this type of implants are provided in the Mazowieckie voivodship.","PeriodicalId":214555,"journal":{"name":"Nowa Audiofonologia","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129321590","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}

It is estimated that approximately 10% of inherited hearing loss is caused by this syndrome. It is associated with abnormal pendrin’s structure, causing triad of symptoms; among which the main one is sensorineural hearing loss. Aim: The aim of this literature review is to present current knowledge on audiological features of hearing loss in children with Pendred syndrome and the efficacy of cochlear implantation in this group of patients. Materials and methods: To identify suitable literature, a search was performed using following databases of scientific articles: PubMed, Web of Science and Medline. Having used the combination of key words: ‘Pendred syndrome’, ‘children’, ‘cochlear implantation’ and analyzing articles in English and Polish which were consistent with the search criteria, 16 articles were found suitable for the review (11 about audiological characteristic of patients with Pendred syndrome and 5 articles about cochlear implantation). Results: In children with Pendred syndrome a sensorineural hearing loss with genetic basis is observed. In most patients the hearing loss is prelingual, but cases with periand postlignual hearing loss were also described. In some cases, the hearing loss might be progressive and/or of fluctuating nature, triggered by even minor head trauma. The hearing loss is mainly bilateral and symmetrical. An effective method of hearing loss treatment in children reporting lack of benefits from conventional hearing aids is cochlear implantation. Based on the current literature, cochlear implantation is an effective method of aural rehabilitation in this group of patients. Conclusions: Early diagnosis of Pendred syndrome and implementation of its effective treatment give pediatric patients opportunity to develop hearing and speech. Cochlear implantation seems to be the most effective method of rehabilitation in patients without benefits from conventional hearing aids, significantly improving quality and comfort of patients’ life.","PeriodicalId":214555,"journal":{"name":"Nowa Audiofonologia","volume":"38 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114032868","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}

Forms of medical treatment proposed so far for this group of patients included the use of CROS hearing devices or BAHA bone conduction implants. None of them restores the auditory function in the deaf ear. The auditory signal is transmitted from the deaf ear to the hearing ear, which improves the functioning of the patient only in certain situations. A cochlear implant can restore auditory functions in the deaf ear. In order to make this possible to happen, proper hearing rehabilitation is necessary after implantation. Until now, the program of such rehabilitation was adapted to deaf people or people with partial deafness. For people with normal hearing in one ear, there was no proper therapeutic program. The aim of the work is to present the concept of auditory training based on knowledge about brain neuroplasticity and the assumption that the implanted ear is trained in an isolated way. The largest group of patients with unilateral deep hearing loss are adults, therefore the work presents an exemplary program of exercises designed precisely for this group of patients.","PeriodicalId":214555,"journal":{"name":"Nowa Audiofonologia","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132014507","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}
