DESCRIPTION:Cochlear implantation can overcome deficits associated with uni
lateral hearing loss and a potentially accompanying tinnitus by reinstatin
g functional levels of binaural hearing and improving recipients' quality
of life. \n\nHow can CI fitting be optimized for reaching this goal\, and
does the mapping approach in recipients with SSD differ from that in tradi
tional CI users? Dr. Griet Mertens\, Coordinator of the clinical cochlear
implant research program at the Antwerp University Hospital in Belgium\, a
nd Dr. Dayse Tá\;vora-Vieira\, Head of Audiology at the Fiona Stanle
y Fremantle Hospital Group in Western Australia\, will offer insights into
their mapping practice and share recommendations to help SSD patients ach
ieve long-term satisfaction and binaural hearing with their CI.\nModerator

UID:RFCALITEM639117743590261734
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:Cochlear implantation can overcome deficits

recipients' quality of life.
