- ItemSomente MetadadadosAuto Percepção Do Benefício Auditivo E O Reconhecimento De Fala Em Usuários De Implante Coclear(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2018-01-18) Muller, Renata [UNIFESP]; Chiari, Brasilia Maria [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Objective: To Correlate Speech Perception Score In Both Silence And Noise And Self Perception Of Cochelar Implant Benefit In Adults With Cochelar Implant And To Correlate Speech Perception Score In Both Silence And Noise With Time Of Using Cochlear Implant. Methods: A Cohort Of 27 Post-Lingually Deafned Subjects Between 12 And 75 Years Old Who Wear Unilaterally Cochlear Implant And Had Tonal Threshold Minor Than 40dba. All The Subjects Were Assessed Using Pure Tone Audiometry In Free Field, Speech Perception Tests Both In Silence And Noise And Hisqui19 Questionnaire That Evaluates Self Perception About Cochlear Implant Sound Quality. Results: The Majority Of The Subjects Derived A "Moderate" Sound Quality Level From Their Cochlear Implant. The Mean Speech Perception In Silence Score Was 46,06dba And 79,65%. The Mean Speech Perception In Noise Score Was 78,69dba And 29%. The Subjects Who Derived A "Poor" Sound Quality Level From Their Cochlear Implant Had The Worst Speech Perception Score, And Those Whor Deriv
- ItemSomente MetadadadosAvaliação Do Resultado De Implante Coclear Em Perdas Auditivas Pós-Meningite(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2017-03-29) Britto, Fernanda Carneiro Corujeira De [UNIFESP]; Cruz, Oswaldo Laercio Mendonca [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Objective: To analyze the audiologic results of cochlear implant in patients with post-lingual hearing loss secondary to bacterial meningitis, as well as to compare them with the results on hearing loss due to other etiologies. Methods: This was a retrospective case-control study, in which 22 patients with post-lingual deafness underwent cochlear implant surgery, 11 of whom had a suspected diagnosis of bacterial meningitis (cases) and 11 with another etiologies (controls). The patients were evaluated for auditory thresholds, with tri-tonal mean, word and sentence recognition index in closed and open set, before cochlear implant period and after its activation (6, 12 and 24 months). Results: No difference with statistical significance was observed in the audiological results and in the speech performance tests between the groups after the cochlear implant surgery. Conclusion: Postmeningitic deafness alone does not appear to be related to poorer performance with cochlear implants.
- ItemSomente MetadadadosCaracteristicas clínicas e biomarcadores da perda auditiva sensorioneural súbita: papel no prognóstico(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2021) Elias, Thais Gomes Abrahao [UNIFESP]; Penido, Norma De Oliveira [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São PauloIntroduction: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL) is a heterogeneous inflammatory disease, involving multiple causes and different inflammatory responses. We need to incorporate the concept of individualization and better classification of patients with SSHL, aiming to establish the endotypes of this pathology, offer the best therapeutic modality and be able to predict the hearing recovery and therapeutic response of each patient. Objective: To investigate the clinical and molecular characteristics and prognosis of hearing recovery in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Methods: A multicenter study was carried out, including patients diagnosed with SSHL from the Universidade Federal de São Paulo and Massachusetts Eye and Ear, Harvard Medical School, to compare clinical and molecular characteristics (Interleukin-6, Interleukin-10, Tumor-Necrosis Factor-Alpha, antioxidant enzymes and malondialdehyde activity). Results: It was possible to identify the etiology of SSHL in 45.6% of patients with unilateral SSHL (USSHL), 22.7% of patients with bilateral SSHL (BSSHL) non-simultaneous or sequential and 88.8% of patients with BSSHL simultaneous. 77.8% of patients with BSSHL simultaneous had severe or profound hearing loss even after treatment. The differences in the prevalence of severe to profound hearing loss in BSSHL simultaneous compared to unilateral USSHL and BSSHL non-simultaneous or sequential were statistically significant (P = 0.002). No statistically significant association was found between the concentration of interleukins, TNF-alpha, antioxidant enzymes and MDA and hearing recovery among patients with SSHL. As for the performance of patients with SSHL after cochlear implant surgery, there was also no statistically significant difference when compared with a group of patients with idiopathic bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. Discussion: It can be suggested that the involvement of the inner ear is worse in BSSHL simultaneous and is probably related to systemic diseases, mainly autoimmune diseases. The plasma concentration of cytokines and oxidative stress activity do not reliably represent possible elevations of these inflammatory products in the intracochlear environment, which is inaccessible for clinical studies to date. Patients with SSHL experience significant performance improvement after cochlear implant surgery regardless of the etiology of hearing loss. Conclusion: Simultaneous BSSHL should be considered as a distinct clinical entity, when compared to unilateral SSHL and nonsimultaneous or sequential BSSHL, with greater involvement of the inner ear and greater chance of having a worse recovery from hearing loss. We found no difference between hearing gain after cochlear implant surgery in patients with SSHL and patients with idiopathic progressive hearing loss. The plasma concentration of IL-6, IL-10, TNF-alpha, oxidative stress activity and concentrations of TBARS (MDA activity) and TLR 4 do not correlate with the prognosis of hearing recovery after SSHL.

Methods: Normal Guinea Pigs (N = 14) Were Implanted Uni Or Bilaterally With A Multichannel Electrode. The Extra-Cochlear Cochlear Nerve Action Potentials (Cap) Were Obtained In Response To Acoustic Stimuli At Specific Frequencies Before And After Cochleostomy, And After Introduction Of The Electrode Bundle. After Insertion, Intracochlear Ecochg In Response To Acoustic Stimuli At Specific Frequencies Was Recorded With Bipolar Configuration. After The Electrophysiological Experiments, The Guinea Pigs Were Submitted To Euthanasia And To Microtomography ("Tc), In Order To Determine The Position Of The Electrode And To Calculate Of The Depth Of Insertion. Based On The Changes Of Amplitude And Thresholds In Relation To The Stimulus Frequency, The
- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)A habilidade temporal e o reconhecimento de fala competitiva em usuários de implante coclear(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2020-03-05) Salvato, Carolina De Campos [UNIFESP]; Chiari, Brasilia Maria [UNIFESP]; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3118172851522969; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2465568273406624; Universidade Federal de São PauloIntroduction: Hearing impairment (AD) can harm the subject in several contexts, which often generates negative feelings and difficulties in communication. To mitigate the commitments generated by AD, there are compensatory conducts, among them, the Cochlear Implant (CI). Although this device contributes to hearing improvement, many users still have several complaints of speech recognition in a noisy situation (competitive speech). Thus, factors other than audibility, can act in this recognition, among them the temporal ability. Objective: To verify if there is a correlation between the performance of temporal processing and the recognition of competitive and / or distorted speech in patients using Cochlear Implants. Method: Participants underwent the following assessments: anamnesis, free field audiometry with Cochlear Implant at 250 to 4000Hz sound frequencies, TPF - “Frequency Pattern Test”, TPD - “Duration Pattern Test”, SSI - Test of Sentencing Identification with Competitive Message (Synthetic Sentences Identification in Portuguese) and LSP - "List of Sentences in Portuguese" in the noise condition. The data were analyzed using the Pearson and Spearman coefficient, the Shapiro-Wilk test, the Mann-Whitney U test, the Student t test and two-dimensional scatter plots. In addition, a descriptive analysis of the data was performed using the SPSS Statistics software, version 25.0. Hypothesis: CI users with greater difficulty in temporal ability are those who have the worst performance in competitive speech. Results: There was a statistically significant relationship between the tests that assess temporal ability - SSI and TPF (appointment) - and the test that evaluates competitive speech recognition - LSP. Conclusion: CI users who performed well in the test with competitive speech in the noise condition (LSP) obtained equivalent results in the SSI tests (signal-to-noise ratio +10, 0, -10), and TPF - appointment, which assess the ability of deep figure and temporal ability, respectively.
- ItemSomente MetadadadosPerfil Epidemiológico De Pacientes Adultos Reabilitados Com Implante Coclear Em Um Centro Terciário De Atendimento Da Cidade De São Paulo (Centro Do Deficiente Auditivo - Unifesp)(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2017-05-31) Gomes, Leonardo Marques [UNIFESP]; Cruz, Oswaldo Laercio Mendonca [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Objectives: To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the patients adults with cochlear implants in a tertiary referral. Analyze the number of minor and major complications after cochlear implantation in adults. Methods: We performed a retrospective study, non-randomized, for collection of clinical and epidemiological data, from the review of medical records of all adult patients undergoing cochlear implantation and met in the center of the Hearing Impaired UNIFESP, between the years of 2005 to 2015. Results: We observed a prevalence of female patients (52.4%). The most common cause was idiopathic (41.3%), followed by meningitis (14.3%), and otosclerosis (11.1%). A total of 40 (63.5%) of the 63 patients had at least one surgical complication; 5 (7.9%) with at least one major complication and 40 (63.5%) patients with at least one minor complication. Conclusion: The unknown etiology in adults with severe hearing loss still prevalent, followed by meningitis. In spite of the number of major complications is low, reinforces the need for a careful preparation of patients for implantation. The number of major complications is low while the minor complications can be easily treated with conservative treatment. Patients older than 60 years presented similar results and complications to younger patients. Cochlear implantation should therefore be considered in this population.
- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Relação entre voz e percepção de fala em crianças com implante coclear(Pró-Fono Produtos Especializados para Fonoaudiologia Ltda., 2009-03-01) Coelho, Ana Cristina de Castro; Bevilacqua, Maria Cecília; Oliveira, Gisele [UNIFESP]; Behlau, Mara [UNIFESP]; Centro de Estudos da Voz; Universidade de São Paulo (USP); Centro de Estudos da Voz Curso de Especialização; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)BACKGROUND: the use of cochlear implant results in the optimization of speech perception, and, as a consequence in the development of oral language, speech and voice of its users, demonstrating to be one of the most effective and promissing technologies to remediate hearing loss . However, little has been studied about the relationship between auditory skills and the voice of children using cochlear implants. AIM: to relate the speech perception abilities to the vocal characteristics of cochlear implant users. METHOD: perceptive and acoustic analysis of the long vowel /a/ and counting of numbers were carried out. This analysis was compared to a standardized speech perception protocol, that evaluates the recognition of words, its phonemes and consonants. RESULTS: it was observed that the higher the recognition of consonants, the higher the maximum frequency, standard deviation of the fundamental frequency and average of intensity during the sequential speech, as well as fundamental frequency average during the emission of the vowel /a/. Also, the higher the recognition of consonants, the lower the standard deviation of the quality of voice and resonance in the perceptive-auditory analysis. CONCLUSION: among the children with cochlear implants, the ones with better speech perception abilities present lower perceptive-auditory deviations of the quality of voice.
