We just revealed our latest innovations at CI2024 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain. There we unveiled new tools to enable clinicians to provide follow-up fitting care remotely to MED-EL cochlear implant users without an appointment. We also offered a sneak peek into what’s coming soon for cochlear implantation and RONDO 3 users.
Clinicians are just starting to discover the great potential of anatomy-based fitting, an approach to cochlear implant frequency mapping that only MED-EL offers as part of our fitting software, MAESTRO, which is available to clinicians. It is the next step forward in providing cochlear implant recipients closer to natural hearing. As a new feature introduced with the release of MAESTRO 9.0, anatomy-based fitting (ABF) allows you to align the frequency map stimulated by the CI to the natural place-pitch frequency map in the cochlea as best as possible.
To deter the spread of SARS-CoV-2, or coronavirus, many governments and health authorities have called for the wearing of face masks. While the situation has recently improved and face mask requirements have eased in some countries, one thing is certain: COVID-19 has made the wearing of face masks a normal part of everyday life for billions of people, especially in clinical settings and when infection rates are high.
