Abstract: From the perspective of parents, the use of cochlear implants improves the quality of life of their children; the shorter the time of cochlear implants use, the higher the improvement in quality of life; and the more developed the auditory skills, the lower the percentage of quality of life improvement with the cochlear implants.

“…Unfortunately, we could not determine the main sub-domain affecting the siblings' QoL even though the prediction model (regression model 2) was significant. In contrast to consistent findings that the use of CI improved communication skills among CI users and their family members and social relations (Almeida et al, 2015; Looi et al, 2016), Liu et al (2016) reported that improvement in speech recognition scores among pediatric CI recipients in South West China did not correlate with improvement in the QoL of these children, suggesting that speech perception ability and, therefore, oral interaction skills achieved by these children following cochlear implantation might not always contribute to their QoL. However, in that study, they measured only the QoL of the implantees, not that of their families.…”

“…However, a previous study reported an effect of gender on outcomes, with male children experiencing worse QoL than female children. 30 It is possible that the smaller sample in the current study was not sufficiently powered to identify such differences between genders. Nonetheless, further research is required to determine the factors associated with worse outcomes.…”

“…Com isso, os questionários de avaliação de qualidade de vida surgiram como uma ferramenta de avaliação dos resultados obtidos após a cirurgia do IC. Tais instrumentos avaliam, de forma subjetiva, o impacto multifatorial (domínios) das condições de saúde de usuários de IC (Almeida, Matas, Couto, & Carvalho, 2015). O WHOQOL-bref é um dos instrumentos mais adequados para avaliar a qualidade de vida, visto que ele considera a subjetividade e a multidimensionalidade que compõem a vida das pessoas (Angelo et al, 2016).…”
