Indikationen zur Cochlea-Implantat Versorgung bei Kindern: Wohin geht die Reise?

Abstract

The indications for cochlear implants in children were gradually expended during the last 30 years. This concerns both the age at implantation and the audiological criteria, unilateral or bilateral treatment, the treatment of unilateral deafness and of children with multiple disabilities. Due to the improvement in hearing preservation and new technical developments, it is to be expected that the indication limits will continue to shift in the coming decades.

Die Indikationen zur Cochlea-Implantat-Versorgung (CI-Versorgung) von Kindern wurden in den letzten 30 Jahren schrittweise erweitert. Dies betrifft sowohl das Alter bei Implantation als auch die audiologischen Kriterien, die uni- oder bilaterale Versorgung, die Versorgung bei einseitiger Taubheit und von Kindern mit Mehrfachbehinderungen. Durch die Verbesserung des Hörerhalts und neue technische Entwicklungen ist zu erwarten, dass sich die Indikationsgrenzen auch in den kommenden Dekaden weiter verschieben.
