Audiological and Quality of Life Outcomes of Anatomy Based Fitting in Patients Implanted by Robot Assisted Cochlear Implant Surgery (RACIS)
Severe to profound hearing loss affects 0,8% of the global population. For these people, a conventional hearing aid often does not provide sufficient benefit. However, these people can benefit from a cochlear implant (CI).
