Prediction of postoperative speech comprehension with the transcutaneous partially implantable bone conduction hearing system Osia ®
CONCLUSION: Osia® can be used for the treatment of CHL and MHL within the indication limits. The average preoperative bone conduction hearing threshold also provides an approximate estimate of the postoperative WRS with Osia®, for which the most accurate prediction is obtained using the preoperative mWRS. Prediction accuracy decreases from a BC-4PTA of ≥ 40 dB HL.PMID:37812258 | DOI:10.1007/s00106-023-01337-3 (Source: HNO)

Prevalence of mucosal injuries during flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing in the presence of a  nasogastric tube
CONCLUSION: The results demonstrate that transnasal flexible endoscopy is a safe, low-risk examination method, even in patients with a nasogastric tube. A very high number of pre-existing mucosal lesions were found, which is probably related to the previous insertion of the nasogastric tube. Due to the high number of pre-existing lesions, strategies should be developed to minimize injuries when placing nasogastric tubes.PMID:37796338 | DOI:10.1007/s00106-023-01361-3 (Source: HNO)

Interventions against hearing loss as an integral component of successful tinnitus therapy
HNO. 2023 Oct 4. doi: 10.1007/s00106-023-01331-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTinnitus very often develops from acute or chronic hearing loss, mainly inner ear deafness. The frequency of the tinnitus mostly corresponds to the frequency range of the hearing loss and is enhanced by down-regulation of inhibition in the central auditory pathway for these frequencies, in addition to focused attention and enhanced arousal for the disturbing sound. Therefore, interventions to improve hearing such as mid-ear surgery or-more often-electronic devices including hearing aids or cochlear implants (CI) are important for the treatment ...

Validation of the German language version of the Chronic Ear Survey and its psychometric comparison with an established German measurement instrument
CONCLUSION: The German version of the CES shows satisfactory psychometric characteristics, so that its use can be recommended. The CES focuses on the influence of ear symptoms on HRQoL, whereas the COMOT-15 also includes functional and psychological aspects. Due to only minor response shift effects, the CES is particularly suitable for studies with multiple repeat measurements.PMID:37792097 | DOI:10.1007/s00106-023-01335-5 (Source: HNO)
