TREATMENTS AND PROCEDURES
SNORING & OSA
Loud snoring is not only a social problem but can also be a symptom of an underlying disease called Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA). In adults, OSA can cause excessive daytime sleepiness, morning headaches, and hypertension and if left untreated can lead to serious problems like heart failure. Patients suffering from these conditions are advised to reduce weight, and in selected cases, the airway is improved.
COCHLEAR IMPLANTS
Cochlear implantations are for the patients suffering from hearing loss, and who are unable to efficiently manage other hearing aids. Implants do not restore normal hearing, and the patients feel that the sound is mechanical. It is only through time and trial that the brain familiarises with the new sound and speech signals and environmental sounds.
Cochlear implants help in:
- Lip-reading
- Improved perception of environment sounds
- Monitoring the volume of one’s own voice
ENT Specialists at Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan Hospital’s ENT outpatient clinic understand and treat a wide range of hearing, balance and communication disorders. The Cochlear Implant program is a significant initiative towards Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan Hospital ’s commitment to helping and restoring hearing in deaf children and adults. A multi-disciplinary team comprising of consultants belonging to various clinical areas – such as otology, audiology, speech pathology and psychology work in unison to make the program a tremendous success.
