1. 1. The Human Cochlea and Cochlear Implantation : Morphological Characteristics and Clinical Correlations

   Författare :Nadine Schart-Morén; Helge Rask-Andersen; Elina Mäki-Torkko; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cochlear implantation; micro-CT; synchrotron; facial nerve stimulation; hearing preservation; round window;

   Sammanfattning : The most common sensory deficit in the world is sensorineural hearing loss. Cochlear implantation (CI) can majorly contribute to restore hearing, not only in patients with severe to profound hearing loss, but also in hearing-impaired patients with residual low-frequency hearing.

3. 2. Experiences from Cochlear Implantation and Auditory Brainstem Implantation in Adults and Children : Electrophysiological Measurements, Hearing Outcomes and Patient Satisfaction

   Författare :Karin Lundin; Helge Rask-Andersen; Fredrik Stillesjö; Claes Möller; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :cochlear implant; auditory brainstem implant; electrically evoked auditory brainstem responses; long deafness duration; neurofibromatosis type 2; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

   Sammanfattning : Cochlear implants (CIs) and auditory brainstem implants (ABIs) are prostheses for hearing used in patients with profound hearing impairment. A CI requires an operational cochlear nerve to function in contrast to an ABI. LÄS MER

4. 3. Children with Cochlear Implants : Cognition and Reading Ability

   Författare :Malin Wass; Björn Lyxell; Birgitta Sahlén; Birgitta Larsby; Anita McAllister; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Cochlear implants; children; working memory; phonological skills; lexical access; reading ability; Cochleaimplantat; barn; arbetsminne; fonologiska färdigheter; lexikal aktivering; läsförmåga.; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : The present thesis investigated cognitive ability in children with severe to profound hearing impairment who have received cochlear implants (CIs). The auditory stimulation from a cochlear implant early in life influences most cognitive functions as a consequence of the plasticity of the brain in the young child. LÄS MER

5. 4. Cochlear implantation : experimental and clinical studies

   Författare :Henrik Smeds; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Cochlear implantation makes hearing restoration possible in patients with severe to profound hearing loss. However, patients with residual hearing, where a cochlear implant may be combined with acoustic stimulation, and children with malformed cochleae, where the surgery itself as well as language training may be a challenge, are two important groups of patients that require special procedures.

7. 5. Experiences, networks and uncertainty : parenting a child who uses a cochlear implant

   Författare :Liz Adams Lyngbäck; Anders Gustavsson; Gunnar Karlsson; Patrick Kermit; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; parenting; parents; cochlear implant; first-person perspective; lifeworld; netnographic; everyday life; orientation; deaf; disability; sign language; allyship; social literacy; pedagogik; Education;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this dissertation project is to describe the ways people experience parenting a deaf child who uses a cochlear implant. Within a framework of social science studies of disability this is done by combining approaches using ethnographic and netnographic methods of participant observation with an interview study. LÄS MER
