SUMMARY:CI Futures Forum: Best Practice Clinical Pathway for Diagnosis
DESCRIPTION:Screening for hearing loss in adults is important for the identification of  potential candidates for cochlear implantation. Clearer and appropriate criteria for diagnosis of those who may be a candidate for cochlear implants  will help create a clear pathway to implantation and improve understanding of the benefits and appropriateness of CIs by health professionals and the general public. The guidelines and evidence are clear that older age should be no barrier to cochlear implantation.** \nThis webinar will feature presentations from a diverse multi disciplinary panel of experts. The panel will present real world examples from their own perspective and experience as well as discussing  the recommendations from the Consensus paper.  These webinars are open to all hearing health professionals\, cochlear implant teams\, cochlear implant users\, advocacy groups and commissioners of health care.  \nWatch the PresentationsChair: Michal Luntz\nMichal Luntz\, MD\, is an Otologist\, the director of the Ear and Hearing Center at A.R.M Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery\, Assuta MC\, Tel Aviv.

She is one of the first (2001) cochlear implant surgeons who insisted on the importance of bimodal hearing and is responsible for establishing the Israeli criteria for cochlear implantation in adults (2006)\, allowing many individuals with moderate to profound hearing loss to be implanted early enough. \nMichal graduated from Sackler School of Medicine (Tel Aviv University). After her residency\, she divided her position between clinical work at the Department of Otolaryngology at Sheba MC and basic research at the Biomedical Engineering department at Tel Aviv University (aeration function of the middle ear and Eustachian tube).

Between 2008-2019 she served as the Head of the ENT Department\, Rappaport Faculty of Medicine\, Technion. In 2018\, she established the Ear and Hearing Center as part of A.R.M. Otolaryngology\, in Assuta MC\, Tel Aviv. Michal Luntz is an editorial board member in the Acta Otolaryngology\, Laryngoscope\, and Otology & Neurotology. In 2020 she was appointed as the president of the Israeli Society of Auditory research. \nMichal Luntz experienced hearing deterioration during her fellowship in Oto-neurosurgery at the University of Miami Ear institute (1994-1996). She was then fitted with hearing aids. During her time as the Chairperson of the Department of Otolaryngology at Bnai Zion Medical Center she received cochlear implants sequentially (2003\, 2011\, University of Miami Ear Institute). \nRead MoreRead LessPresenters\nLeo De Raeve \nDirector ONICI and Scientific Adviser to the board of European Association of Cochlear Implant Users (EUROCIU)\, teacher of the deaf. \nRead MoreRead LessUlrich Hoppe \nProfessor of Audiology at University Hospital and Head of the Cochlear Implant Center\, CICERO\, in Erlangen\, Germany. \nRead MoreRead LessShakeel Saeed \nProfessor of Otology/Neuro-otology; Consultant ENT and Skullbase Surgeon\, MBBS\, FRCS (Lon)\, FRCS (Ed)\, MD.\, FRCS (ORL).
