Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:How to explain and predict individual difference of artificial cochlea so as to evaluate rehabilitative effect of implant has been paid much attention by audiological scholars,clinical physicians,patients,and their relatives. This study was designed to analyze and evaluate rehabilitative status of patients accepting artificial cochlea implantation to investigate the relative influential factors of auditory rehabilitation. METHODS:A total of 28 patients were selected from Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck,Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao Medical College from June 2002 to April 2008. They were accessed by age,time of rehabilitation training,usage of hearing aids,audiology and aural image before surgery,and NRT monitoring in cochlear implantation so as to observe auditory improvement. The clinical results were analyzed to detect the effect of various factors on auditory rehabilitation. RESULTS:Age,preoperative preparations and good audiology and aural image are important premises for a successful rehabilitation. Longer the time of using hearing aids and language rehabilitation are,and better results will get. NRT response during operation is also an important factor for good auditory rehabilitation. CONCLUSION:The influential factors of auditory rehabilitation after cochlear implant included the age,audition remains,usage of hearing aids,NRT response during operation,and the time after the cochlear implant operation.
