Abstract

Zusammenfassung

Die Single-Sided Deafness (SSD) ist eine einseitige Taubheit mit erhaltener Funktion des nicht betroffenen Ohres. Sie kann angeboren (z.B. durch eine Aplasie des Hörnervs) oder postlingual erworben sein. Die Patienten leiden unter einer eingeschränkten Schalllokalisation und haben Probleme im Störgeräusch. Es gibt verschiedene Therapieoptionen – nur mit einem Kochleaimplantat (Cochlear Implant, CI) kann jedoch ein binaurales Hören erreicht werden.

Abstract

Single-sided deafness (SSD) is characterised by deafness in one ear while the other ear has normal hearing. The most common cause in congenital SSD is aplasia of the auditory nerve, and in post-lingual SSD idiopathic hearing loss. Patients with SSD mainly suffer from impaired sound localisation and difficulties in speech perception in noise. There are various therapy options, but binaural hearing is only possible with a cochlear implant (CI).
