In an era of bilateral funding and changing criteria, when is unilateral cochlear implantation a better option?
Background Funding for paediatric bilateral cochlear implantation became available in Ireland in 2014. Prior to this, children eligible for cochlear implantation received a unilateral implant. Objective To examine the cohort of children who received a unilateral cochlear implant in the 4 year period following bilateral cochlear implantation funding becoming available. Methods A clinical audit of all children implanted for the first time between July 2014 and July 2018. The unilaterally implanted children (n = 105) were divided into 3 groups according to whether they met the audiometric thresholds for implantation in neither ear (Group 1), one ear (Group 2) or both ears (Group 3). One year post operative functional outcomes were examined for all 3 groups. Results All 3 groups showed significant improvements in functional outcomes at 1 year post op. To date, 20% of the unilaterally implanted children have proceeded to get a sequential CI, often where there was no change in audiological status. Conclusions The number of children in Groups 1 and 2 highlighted how our decision making around cochlear implantation has changed in recent years. Unilateral cochlear implantation in certain circumstances is good practice, independent of the audiological profile when an experienced multi-disciplinary team (MDT) is involved in the decision making process. Decision making using a holistic model approach is key, including involving the parent/carer and, where appropriate, the child/teenager themselves. A staged bilateral cochlear implant is also a good option, where careful monitoring and support for the first implant has resulted in positive outcomes..
