Background The last two decades have demonstrated that preoperative functional acoustic
hearing (residual hearing) can be preserved during cochlear implant (CI) surgery. However …

Preservation of residual acoustic hearing has emerged as an important concept for those
individuals undergoing cochlear implantation with residual low frequency hearing. Acoustic …

A cochlear implant is a neuroprosthetic device that can restore speech perception for people
with severe to profound hearing loss. Because of recent evolutions, a growing number of …

This retrospective review explores delayed-onset hearing loss in 85 individuals receiving
cochlear implants designed to preserve acoustic hearing at the University of Iowa Hospitals …

Purpose To evaluate the insertion results and hearing preservation of a novel slim modiolar
electrode (SME) in patients with residual hearing. Methods We retrospectively collected the …

Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is the most common sensory deficit worldwide. Due to
the heterogeneity of causes for SNHL, effective treatment options remain scarce, creating an …

Objective: Describe audiologic outcomes in hearing preservation (HP) cochlear implant
candidates using a slim modiolar electrode (SME). Study Design: Retrospective. Setting …

Background: Cochlear implantation is an efficient treatment for postlingually deafened adults
who do not benefit sufficiently from acoustic amplification. Implantation is indicated when it …

Methods: Twenty subjects with considerable residual hearing in low frequencies were
consecutively implanted with the SlimJ electrode array. The electrode was inserted slowly …

Introduction and Objectives Among cochlear implant candidates, an increasing number of
patients are presenting with residual acoustic hearing. To monitor the postoperative course …
