The aim of this study is to compare patients who develop facial nerve stimulation (FNS) after cochlear implantation (CI) and are managed with a triphasic pulse pattern (TPP) those do not FNS regarding the behavioral mapping parameters including most comfortable loudness level (MCL) charge amplitude, threshold (THR), as well electrophysiological phase duration (PD) impedance level. A retrospective chart review developed at any point device activation were TPP was carried out....
Background In early 2021, vaccination against COVID-19 became one of the most important measures needed to control pandemic. Objectives This study aimed investigate levels acceptance and factors affecting decisions among Saudi parents caregivers children under 12 for getting them vaccinated. Design setting A cross-sectional survey 1000 was carried out from May 2021 June 2021. The participants were eastern, central, southern, western, northern provinces Arabia. Materials methods data...
Objectives: A wide variety of intraoperative tests are available in cochlear implantation. However, no consensus exists on which constitute the minimum necessary battery. We assembled an international panel clinical experts to develop, refine, and vote upon a set core statements. Design: literature review was used identify currently field draft provisional For statement evaluation refinement, we modified Delphi structure. Multiple interactive rounds voting, evaluation, feedback were...
Objectives/hypothesis This study aimed to compare the predicted anatomy‐based frequency allocation of cochlear implant electrodes with default standard frequencies. Study Design Retrospective study. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed using computed tomography (CT) images patients who received implants at a tertiary referral center. Patients were excluded if they had any congenital or acquired anatomical anomalies. The CT uploaded surgical planning software. Two independent...
Abstract Using anatomy-based fitting, we can determine the place-specific map with individualized center frequencies for each electrode contact that is a closer match to natural pitch-place of cochlea. The primary objective this study evaluate tonal presentation across array and calculate semitone difference between adjacent pair contacts according their map. secondary distancing would result in an equal uniform presentation. A total 167 ears were included retrospective study. arrays found...
Cochlear implantation is an effective procedure for treating patients with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss. Silent sinus syndrome (SSS) uncommon disease that affects the maxillary sinus. It diagnosed clinically and confirmed radiologically. This study describes case of a four-year-old child who presented bilateral congenital loss family history The patient had no significant complaints regarding paranasal sinuses or orbits. Radiological evaluation, including temporal bone...
Abstract Background: The management options for hearing difficulties and the indications implantable devices have expanded greatly over time, providing an opportunity to treat most disabilities. However, current clinical practice can miss a large number of potential candidates due improper referrals. Up until today, referral criteria in Saudi Arabia are not well defined depend on judgment referring practitioner. This study aims provide guide patients with difficulties. Materials Methods: An...
<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Rhinogenic CSF leaks are not an uncommon presentation. Considering the possibility of drastic intracranial complications if left untreated, makes management such cases outmost importance. Most non-traumatic will need a surgical repair. And since introduction endoscopic nasal surgeries, these repairs done almost always through endonasal approach.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong>...

BFOLs share common histopathologic feature replacing normal bony tissue structure distorted fibrous mal-arranged structure. Although, ossifying pathologically benign, but it’s presentation can vary from an incidental radiologic finding to devastating facial mass cosmetic...
This study aims to report a cochlear-implanted case who was explanted due recalcitrant pain at the site of device, despite various manage- ment trials. After explantation, this patient had an unexpected subjective and objective improvements in hearing. The reported improved hearing after explantation satisfied with using aids. audiological evaluation showed not only preserved hear- ing but also improvement. medical records were reviewed retrieve all relevant data. illustrates how cochlear...
<h3>Objectives:</h3> To demonstrate the efficacy of cochlear implants (CI) in post-lingual adults, including surgical and auditory outcomes based on a 25-year experience at tertiary referral hospital. <h3>Methods:</h3> This study was retrospective, descriptive chart review aged ≥18 years, implanted King Abdullah Ear Specialist Center (KAESC), Kingdom Saudi Arabia (KSA), between September 1994 March 2020. The included 176 implantations performed 144 patients. Data retrieval patient...
This paper provides a step-by-step guide for organizing the scientific program (OSP) of international conferences. Through informal discussions, panel experts conferences came up with this guide, which includes flowchart, checklist, and detailed discussions each step. Subsequently, additional specialists were invited to evaluate synopsis provide their input. All participants approved final version after outline was improved. proposes following six steps: 1) preparation, 2) recruitment, 3)...
Objectives: This work aimed to study the feasibility and stakeholders' satisfaction with remote programming (RP) of cochlear implants. Materials Methods: prospective was conducted in a tertiary referral ear specialist center. The audiological speech outcomes patients were measured. all stakeholders, including experts (REs), local hosts (LHs), patients/families, evaluated through detailed questionnaires. Results: Twenty-two RP sessions for 15 included. levels LH, REs, patients/families above...
Subcutaneous emphysema is usually induced by trauma, infection with gas-forming organisms, or surgical interventions. Few cases have been reported subcutaneous after cochlear implantation. Here, we present two of distinct etiologies. One case presented recurrent, bilateral, self-limiting, and mild swelling around the internal receiver stimulator implant. In-depth history taking this patient revealed that each episode was preceded an upper respiratory tract infection, associated forceful...
In some patients with cochlear implants, bony resorption at the internal receiver- stimulator site can be observed on postoperative computed tomography. Therefore, it is essential to elucidate effects of receiver-stimulator scalp and bed over time.We aimed evaluate how a implant device changed thickness surrounding skull time using tomography.This retrospective study evaluated who underwent implantation received two tomography scans postoperatively for different indications tertiary referral...
