HSC Winnipeg Hearing Surgery Program Reaches Milestone

The surgical hearing implant program at Health Sciences Centre Winnipeg, in partnership with Central Speech and Hearing Clinic, offers a local choice for Manitobans to receive all aspects of care including preoperative evaluation, surgery and post-operative rehabilitation. The three-year-old program recently performed the 100th surgery to insert a cochlear hearing device. A cochlear implant is a small electronic device that can help to provide a sense of sound by electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve to a person who is profoundly deaf or severely hard-of-hearing. Adults who have lost all or most of their hearing later in life can benefit from cochlear implants by associating the sounds made through an implant with sounds they remember. Cochlear implants, together with intensive post-implant auditory-verbal therapy, help young children learn to use their device to develop speech. http://www.centralspeech.ca http://www.hsc.mb.ca
