While the hearing simulation caused by the cochlear implant won't be the same as how those without a hearing impairment experience sound, it will give a close approximation that allows the individual to function in the hearing world. Doctors who work with cochlear implants are called otologists, a specific kind of Ear, Nose and Throat Doctor (ENT). This doctor assesses candidates for implants, performs the surgery, and oversees the recovery of the patient. People who are severely hard of hearing or who are deaf may be candidates for cochlear implant surgery. The otologist will consider several factors when determining candidacy for cochlear implants If a teenager or adult, does the patient have a desire to be part of the hearing world and are they ready to invest the time and effort to learn how to hear?

If a young child or baby, does the child have a strong support system and access to speech services after the surgery? Does the candidate have a healthy auditory nerve? While less than 1% of deaf individuals have an injured auditory nerve, otologist must ensure the nerve's health for a successful implant. Is the patient physically well enough to undergo surgery? Of course, no one should discount themselves from cochlear surgery until they talk with a board-certified otologist who can determine eligibility for surgery. Cochlear implants have brought hearing to thousands of people with hearing loss. Those candidates who choose to undergo the surgery need to be ready for the multistep process that gets them to a place of hearing.

Surgery: An otologist performs cochlear surgery while the patient is under general anesthesia. The surgery takes anywhere from one to five hours. A space is drilled into the skull bone in the back of the head for the transmitter, and another space is created in the inner ear where the electrodes are placed. One cause hearing decline is the inflammation of the nervous and vascular systems called homo cysteine which is lowered by the use of folates or folic acid. One of the problems however is that folks over forty stop ingesting B vitamins through the stomach like they used to. Instead, use lots of leafy greens. Like spinach, asparagus, broccoli and kale. According to Dr. Mark Rosenberg, Tanakan (pharmaceutical drug) was discovered to reduce tympanitis and improve hearing and speech in aging patients. Suggesting that everyone could increase their hearing and reduce presbycusis (age related hearing loss) with this drug. It might not be natural but the studies show that it works!
