Setting New Standards in COVID-19 Era

Online

Numerous events have been cancelled all around the world due to the spread of COVID-19. However, HEARRING network members found a way to stay connected and maintain the co-active spirit even in those challenging times. An online round table discussion took place on May 23^rd focusing on the extremely relevant topic of “Setting New Standards in Clinical Practice in the COVID-19 Era”. The discussion was moderated by our renowned expert Prof. Mohan Kameswaran and the board of speakers included such outstanding professionals as Prof. Wolf-Dieter Baumgartner, Prof. Joachim Müller, Prof. Javier Gavilán Bouzas, Prof. Vedat Topsakal, Prof. Vlad Kuzovkov and Prof. Manoj Manikoth.

As a result, the following has been conveyed: Cochlear Implant surgery is not an elective surgery. In some cases it’s an emergency surgery. For example, in the case of neuro-linguistic emergencies, when children are suffering from bilateral severe to profound deafness in the timeframe of high plasticity of the brain, the surgery shall not be delayed for more than one month. See below, to join the full event and to find out more about the main conclusions in the picture gallery.

One of the highlights was definitely the HEARRING comprehensive lecture on the matter of the future of inner ear treatment (by H. Staecker) followed by another hands-on temporal bone laboratory workshop.
