Abstract:
Advances in hearing technology offer patients with hearing loss even better ways to improve communication and quality of life. Hearing devices are more convenient and compatible than ever, with wireless connectivity to smartphones and lithium-ion rechargeable batteries, while improved surgical techniques widen the candidacy for cochlear implants to those with more residual hearing.
