520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc The estimated incidence of sensorineural hearing impairment (>40 dB HL) at birth is 1.86 per 1000<br/>newborns in developed countries and 30e40% of these are unilateral. Profound sensorineural unilateral<br/>hearing impairment or single sided deafness (SSD) can be treated with a cochlear implant. However, this<br/>treatment is costly and invasive and unnecessary in the eyes of many. Very young children with SSD<br/>often do not exhibit language and cognitive delays and it is hard to imagine that neurocognitive skills will<br/>present difficulties with one good ear. In the current paper we review the most recent evidence on the<br/>consequences of unilateral hearing impairment for auditory and neurocognitive factors. While data of<br/>both adults and children are discussed, we focus on developmental factors, congenital deafness and a<br/>window of opportunity for intervention. We discuss which etiologies qualify for a cochlear implant and<br/>present our multi-center prospective study on cochlear implants in infants with one deaf ear. The large,<br/>state-of-the art body of research allows for evidence-based decisions regarding management of unilateral<br/>hearing loss in children.
