Hearing loss is one of the most common disabilities worldwide. Implantable hearing devices offer exciting developments in treating hearing loss in patients who previously had poor treatment options, including those with anatomic abnormalities, chronic draining ears, or severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss. Examples of these new hearing technologies include bone-anchored hearing devices and implantable middle ear devices that offer hearing rehabilitation for conductive or mixed hearing loss and single-sided deafness. Cochlear implants also offer hearing options for patients with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss. This chapter describes and highlights the interprofessional team’s role in evaluating and treating patients who undergo implantation of these new hearing devices.
