Project Summary/Abstract This application seeks partial funding for three years of cochlear implant (CI) clinical research conferences to be convened by the American Cochlear Implant Alliance in April 2021 (Dallas), May 2022 (Washington, DC) and Spring 2023 West Coast TBD. The CI meetings provide a unique opportunity for CI clinicians from across the continuum of care (i.e., ENTs, audiologists, speech pathologists, psychologists), educators, and scientists to learn together. Virtual participation will be offered. In the first year of the grant, we will convene CI2021 Cochlear Implantation: It Takes a Village. The program for CI2021 will focus on clinical research relative to specific aspects of the cochlear implant process for children and adults including: team approach to managing the range of CI patients including bilingual patients and families, special needs populations and others receiving cochlear implants under expanded indications; role of therapy, education and family engagement for pediatric and adult patients; hearing preservation; telehealth; cognition and effect on outcomes; vestibular assessment; advances in CI and surgical techniques; and alternative methods of managing hearing loss. Increasingly the need for a team that includes individuals who are not “traditional” CI clinicians is recognized in light of the expanded indications that are driving growth in individuals now considered good CI candidates. Students may apply for waived registration and financial support and may enter a student poster competition with interviews conducted by an interdisciplinary committee. A post-conference afternoon seminar for deaf and hard of hearing adults, parents of children with hearing loss, and other family members will be held to share translational research content for a non-clinician audience. We will explore the best practice models to support an expansion in CI indications and the likely increased volume of patients eligible for care. Our three specific aims for the conference are to: (1) explore comparative outcomes of CI recipients implanted under expanded indications including special needs populations, bilingual patients, and device variables that contribute to performance; (2) evaluate clinical practice models to determine if they are able to effectively support a growing patient population and suggest future changes in clinical practice; (3) determine research needed to better advise patients and address current variability in outcomes among the CI recipient population.

项目摘要/摘要 该应用程序寻求部分资金，用于三个三个三个人工耳蜗（CI）临床研究 2022年4月（达拉斯）的美国人工耳蜗植入联盟将于2022年5月交易会议 （华盛顿特区）和2023年春季西海岸TBD。 来自整个护理的CI临床医生 心理学家，教育者和科学家将通过提供虚拟参与。 在赠款的第一年，我们将召集CI2021人工耳蜗：它需要一个村庄 CI2021的计划将重点介绍相对于人工耳蜗的特定方面的临床研究 儿童和成人的过程包括：管理CI患者范围的团队方法 双语患者和家庭，特殊需求人群以及其他接受人工耳蜗的植入物 扩大的迹象； 远程保存； CI和手术技术； 一个不是“ CI临床医生得到认可的人”的团队 扩大了驱动绘制种植个人的迹象，现在candidididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididits。 学生可以申请放弃的注册和财政支持，并可以输入学生海报 跨学科委员会进行的访谈 聋人和听力成年人的听力，有听力损失的孩子的父母和其他家庭的研讨会 将举行成员为非临床观众分享翻译研究内容。 我们将探索最佳实践模型，以支持CI指示的扩展以及可能 有资格护理的患者体积增加。 探索在扩展的特殊指示下植入的CI接受者的比较结果 需要受到促进性能的人的受欢迎程度，双语患者和设备变化； 临床实践模型以确定他们是否能够有效支持不断增长的患者人群 并提出临床实践的未来变化；（3）确定需要更好的研究 并解决CI接受者人群中结果的当前变异性。
