Area of Science:

  • Otorhinolaryngology
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • Cochlear implants (CI) are the standard treatment for profound deafness.
  • Growing CI patient numbers necessitate efficient data management.
  • Database systems enhance data assessment for physicians, insurers, and researchers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and present a specialized database module for cochlear implant patient data.
  • To evaluate the module's utility through analysis of 100 patient cases.

Main Methods:

  • A custom database module was developed in collaboration with Innoforce Est.
  • Data from 100 cochlear implant patients were collected and analyzed.
  • Key features of the module and sample data analysis are presented.

Main Results:

  • The cohort included 100 patients (50 male, 50 female) aged 1-87 years, with a peak in the 51-60 age group.
  • Over 50% had contralateral severe hearing impairment, meeting CI criteria.
  • Most patients experienced functional deafness for over 20 years prior to CI; 67 showed positive preoperative electrical stimulation.
  • All 100 patients reported auditory sensations post-CI.

Conclusions:

  • The patient cohort is representative of those at Heidelberg University Medical Center and aligns with literature demographics.
  • Contralateral ear status is expected given CI's relative novelty.
  • Preoperative electrical stimulation alone was not a significant predictor.
  • The database facilitated straightforward calculation of hearing outcomes and complications compared to standard systems.
