140 - Enhancing Cochlear Implant Outcomes with Remote Aftercare - Discussion with Sandra Porps, AuD
It is widely believed that only 5% of the more than 2 million adults who are potential candidates for cochlear implant technology have been treated. There are several reasons for this low uptake rate, including the limited number of audiologists and clinics who work with cochlear implants. In addition, these limited resources create an aftercare burden, as many CI recipients must travel long distances for a high number of in-person appointments.
Our guest, Dr. Sandra Porps, discusses a recent study that demonstrates remote aftercare is not only popular among adult CI recipients, but improves outcomes.
