“…Ele substitui parcialmente as funções da cóclea, transformando a energia sonora em sinais elétricos. Diferente do AASI, o IC é colocado por meio de um procedimento cirúrgico, compreendendo uma parte externa junto ao osso do crânio, atrás da orelha, sob a pele, e uma parte interna posicionado dentro da cóclea 12,13 . Relacionado à percepção de fala, o IC é um recurso mais eficiente comparado com o AASI.…”

“…A qualidade do atendimento, bem como a humanização da saúde não fazem sentido sem a necessidade de lançar um olhar sobre a comunicação. Sem a intenção de ser inteiro quando se está com o usuário, sem ter a capacidade de perceber o outro não há qualidade nem atendimento humanizado 12 . É preciso que gestores e profissionais da saúde compreendam que o cuidado em saúde se estabelece no encontro com o usuário, que se faz com a valorização da sua singularidade e suas particularidades comunicativas.…”

Estratégias de comunicação como dispositivo para o atendimento humanizado em saúde da pessoa surda RESUMO OBJETIVO: investigar a percepção de adultos surdos acerca das estratégias de comunicação estabelecidas com profissionais de saúde durante o atendimento. METODOLOGIA: Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritivo-exploratória, quanti-qualitativa. Amostra composta por 29 surdos, estudantes e professores de uma escola pública de educação especial e duas universidades federais do Rio Grande do Sul. RESULTADOS: Dos participantes, 59% eram professores e 41% eram estudantes. A idade variou entre 19 e 53 anos, sendo que 73% tinham perda auditiva neurossensorial de grau profundo, 86% nunca foram atendidos por profissional que soubesse Libras e 45% já desistiu do atendimento por dificuldades comunicativas. Dentre as dificuldades no acesso à saúde, 25% apontaram a sala de espera, 23% dificuldade em compreender explicações do profissional e 23% ausência de intérpretes. CONCLUSÃO: Foi possível perceber que existem estratégias comunicativas que podem promover cuidado e humanização no atendimento à saúde da pessoa surda. Descritores Communication strategies as a tool for humanizing health care for the deaf personABSTRACT GOAL: to investigate the perception of deaf adults about the communication strategies established by health professionals during care. METHODOLOGY: it was conducted a descriptive/exploratory qualitative and quantitative research. Sample consisted of 29 deaf students and teachers from one public special school and two federal universities of Rio Grande do Sul. RESULTS: Of the participants, 59% were teachers and 41% were students. Age ranged between 19 and 53 years, and 73% had profound sensorineural hearing loss, 86% have never been assisted by a professional who knew Libras and 45% have dropped out of care by communication difficulties. Among the difficulties in access to health, 25% pointed out the waiting room, 23% found it difficult to understand the explanations of professionals and 23% lack of interpreters. CONCLUSION: It was possible to see that there are communication strategies able to promote care and humanization in the health care for deaf people.

“…The problems associated with most infectious diseases had been resolved using established diagnostic and therapeutic tools. At the end of this period, new innovative tools like cochlear implantation were developed and the results proven [ 10 ]. As a result, the main research areas in this third period were focused on cochlear implantation and related topics, including speech discrimination and hearing advances in hearing aids.…”

To examine and identify the changing pattern of published articles in the otology literature over the past several decades. We used a variety of search engines available through PubMed.gov based on key words in the following categories: diagnosis, diagnostic tools, and therapeutic tools. The number of searchable key words increased from 1945 to the present. Overall, there has been a major shift in topics cover in the otological literature. Most recently, there has been significant increases in the following categories: age-related hearing loss, speech discrimination, and cochlear implantation. Based on this analysis, we believe these represent the areas of major research in the field of otology today. The present study is a bibliometric analysis of the changing pattern of published articles using a new analytic approach. The results identify the shifting topics of research in otology and might be helpful for future studies in Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery.

“…In the early stages, CIs faced skepticism and scrutiny within the scientific community, a common reaction to most emerging technologies. Many auditory scientists and otologists criticized these implants, rejecting the potential for restoring useful hearing due to perceived crude stimulation patterns [21]. Dr. Merle Lawrence expressed doubt, asserting the impossibility of stimulating auditory nerve fibers for speech perception [22].…”

Cochlear implants (CIs), a revolutionary breakthrough in auditory technology, have profoundly impacted the lives of individuals with severe hearing impairment. Surgically implanted behind the ear and within the delicate cochlea, these devices represent a direct pathway to restoring the sense of hearing. Implanting hope alongside innovation, their captivating history unfolds through pivotal dates and transformative milestones. From the first human implantation by Drs. William House and John Doyle in 1961 to FDA approval in 1984, each step in their evolution mirrors a triumph of human ingenuity. The 1990s witnessed significant miniaturization, enhancing accessibility, while the 21st century brought about improvements in speech processing and electrode technology. These strides have elevated CIs beyond functional devices to life-changing instruments, enriching both auditory experiences and communication skills. This entry delves into the captivating history of CIs, spotlighting key dates that paint a vivid picture of challenges overcome and remarkable progress achieved. It explores the people and moments that defined their development, ultimately shaping these implants into indispensable tools that continually redefine the landscape of hearing assistance.
