“…Although the potential for increased skin reactions and excess bone formation has traditionally been considered higher in children, in our study, we found it was comparable with other recent pediatric studies (1,29,30) and actually less than some previous adult reports (30).…”

The Birmingham Program has a high proportion of syndromic patients with complex medical problems. The fixture failure rate was found to be 14%. This included the multiple-fixture failures in children younger than 3 years old. There was 1 serious complication. The BAHA is a reliable and effective treatment for selected patients. Our program currently has 97% of its children wearing their BAHA on a daily basis with continuing audiologic benefit.

“…A pilot study on the waiting time for Baha loading revealed no increased extrusion rate for patients with implants loaded 6 weeks postoperatively compared to those loaded 3 months postoperatively (14). All adult patients implanted by the senior author since 2002 have received their processor at 6 weeks with no implant losses.…”

“…In the one-stage procedure, the implant and abutment are placed at the same time, whereas in the two-stage procedure, the abutment is fitted after a period of around 3 months in adults or 4-6 months in children to allow osseointegration (where bone fuses with the implant) to occur. 51 The advantage of one-stage surgery is that it requires only one surgical procedure, but it risks transmission of forces through the abutment to the fixture before osseointegration has occurred, resulting in a failure of osseointegration and loss of the fixture. The two-stage procedure is therefore most commonly used for young children, adults who may not be able to protect the abutment adequately (e.g.…”

HTA NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeThe Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' . The HTA programme is needs led in that it fills gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. There are three routes to the start of project...
