Africa Summit on Hearing Impairment 2024

NAIROBI, KENYa
AFRICA SUMMIT ON HEARING IMPAIRMENT

HEARRING is delighted to announce that our experts will be present at the Africa Summit on Hearing Impairment, which will take place in Nairobi, Kenya from 7th to 8th of October 2024.

This wonderful event will bring together international experts and professionals in the field of ear and hearing care as well as policymaking to work towards solutions and develop strategies for the systematic management of hearing impairment. Moreover, it will also help to foster international collaboration and the exchange of knowledge.

One of the main objectives of the summit is to work towards developing strategies for the systematic management of hearing impairment. By bringing together experts from different disciplines, the summit aims to explore innovative approaches and best practices in the field.

Additionally, the summit seeks to contribute to policy solutions that will initiate the development of national and local Hearing Implant programmes. By engaging policymakers, the summit aims to create a conducive environment for the implementation of effective hearing healthcare programs.

Another important aspect of the summit is infrastructure and capacity building in the hearing healthcare sectors in Africa. The summit will provide a platform for discussions and collaborations on improving the infrastructure and resources available for hearing healthcare in the region. This includes addressing issues such as access to hearing loss solutions, screening programmes, and specialized training for healthcare professionals.

Lastly, the summit aims to enhance public health knowledge in hearing health among professionals, health planners, and policy makers. By sharing the latest research, advancements, and best practices in the field of hearing impairment, the summit aims to improve the overall understanding of hearing health and the impact of the public health approach on hearing health.

Overall, the Africa Summit on Hearing Impairment is a unique opportunity for international experts to come together, exchange knowledge, and work towards improving hearing healthcare sector in Africa. Through collaboration and policy advocacy, the summit aims to make a significant impact on the lives of individuals with hearing impairment in the region.

The HEARRING Group is genuinely excited about the opportunity to participate in the hearing care development during this event and thus help to raise the standards of practice in the African region.

Audiological outcomes of robot-assisted cochlear implant surgery

Audiological outcomes
of robot-assisted
cochlear implant surgery

Today we have a very special state-of-the-art paper to share with you! It’s titled “Audiological outcomes of robot-assisted cochlear implant surgery”. It was co-authored by our renowned experts from Antwerp Prof. Paul Van de Heyning. Prof. Vincent Van Rompaey, Prof. Griet Mertens and Prof. Vedat Topsakal.

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the short-term and long-term audiological outcomes in patients who underwent cochlear implantation with a robot-assisted system to enable access to the cochlea, and to compare outcomes with a matched control group of patients who underwent cochlear implantation with conventional access to the cochlea.
