Expanding Adult Cochlear Implant Access & Outcomes ACI Alliance is excited to partner with Audiology Online to offer an informative four-course series this January covering “Expanding Adult Cochlear Implant Access and Outcomes.” Registration is free and open now for the first three courses. CEUs are available for Audiology Online members.
In every country access to cochlear implantation (CI) for adults with severe or profound hearing loss is low. Globally, it is estimated that only one in twenty who could benefit from cochlear implants have one. Most other health treatments have internationally accepted standards of care that inform patients and health care practitioners about when specialist referrals and treatment options should be considered.

Lack of referral pathways to CI leads to a substantial unnecessary burden to the individual with hearing loss, with a poorer quality of life.

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.
