Abstract:
Techniques for treating hearing loss comprise surgery, hearing aids and rehabilitation. Medical treatments are devolved to the correction of the cause of the loss of hearing, essentially infection. In hearing loss, surgery is routinely used to repair the consequences of chronic infection and of trauma. It is also used for treatment of otospongiosis. It is used to place vibratory or electric prostheses, which will increase the quality of indications for surgery. For instance, cochlear implants can be used in profound or total, bilateral hearing loss. In parallel, the quality and the miniaturisation of external auditory devices is improving. Rehabilitation, by helping to reconstitute missing factors, comprises a third technique of treatment of hearing loss.
