Cochlear Implants: Audiologic Management and Considerations for Implantable Hearing Devices provides comprehensive coverage of the audiological principles and practices pertaining to cochlear implants and other implantable hearing technologies. This is the first and only book that is written specifically for audiologists and that exhaustively addresses the details involved with the assessment and management of cochlear implant technology. Additionally, this book provides a through overview of hybrid cochlear implants, implantable bone conduction hearing technology, middle ear implantable devices, and auditory brainstem implants.
Key Features
- Each chapter features an abundance of figures supporting the clinical practices and principles discussed in the text and enabling students and clinicians to more easily understand and apply the material to clinical practice.
- The information is evidence based and whenever possible is supported by up-to-date peer-reviewed research.
- Provides comprehensive coverage of complex information and sophisticated technology in a manner that is student-friendly and in an easily understandable narrative form.
- Concepts covered in the narrative text are presented clearly and then reinforced through additional learning aids including case studies and video examples.
- Full color design with numerous figures and illustrations.
- A PluralPlus website includes an image bank for instructors and clinical videos demonstrating basic management procedures and practices.
Cochlear Implants is the perfect choice for graduate-level courses covering implantable hearing technologies because the book provides a widespread yet intricate description of every implantable hearing technology available for clinical use today. This textbook is an invaluable resource and reference for both audiology graduate students and clinical audiologists who work with implantable hearing devices.
Review
"[Wolfe’s] latest work is a state-of-the-art compendium of cochlear implant literature and supersedes his first publication. I particularly enjoyed the section on how to define the electro-acoustic boundary depending on different frequency allocation approaches. Also of interest is the section on the increased likelihood of obtaining electrical stapedial reflex thresholds with higher probe tone frequencies [...]
With the help of just four collaborators, Wolfe delivers a compelling and up-to-date overview of the field. This book may soon be regarded as the handbook of cochlear implant knowledge and I anticipate it will be used regularly to guide clinical practice."
