OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To evaluate the changes in health-related quality of life in unilateral adult cochlear implant patients using the Medical Outcome Study Short-Form Survey-36 (SF-36) and the Health Utility Index Mark 3 (HUI-3. [] Key MethodSTUDY DESIGN Prospective cohort study. METHODS Eighty-one postlingually deaf adult patients undergoing cochlear implantation completed the SF-36 and HUI-3 preoperatively and at a median of 1.4 years (range, 11 months-5 years) after cochlear implantation.

The impact of cochlear implantation on health-related quality of life in older adults, measured with the Health Utilities Index Mark 2 and Mark 3
TLDR
The HUI is suitable to detect differences between normal-hearing controls and CI users, but might underestimate HRQoL changes after CI in CI users over 55.
Validity and reliability of the Cochlear Implant Quality of Life (CIQOL)-35 Profile and CIQOL-10 Global instruments in comparison to legacy instruments
TLDR
The newly developed CIQOL instruments are more psychometrically sound and comprehensive than the NCIQ and the HUI-3 for assessing QOL in adult CI users and are ready for use in clinical and research settings to measure QOL and real-world functional abilities of adultCI users.

TLDR
The objectives of this study were to compare health utility scores measured with different health utility instruments in adult patients with bilateral deafness, and to assess which health utility instrument would be the most appropriate for future studies on cochlear implantation.
Health-Related Quality of Life Changes Associated With Hearing Loss.
TLDR
A comprehensive profile of items that describe how quality of life is associated with hearing loss and its treatments that can be used to generate hearing-related quality ofLife measures, including a novel utility measure are presented.
Using Generic and Disease-Specific Measures to Assess Quality of Life before and after 12 Months of Hearing Implant Use: A Prospective, Longitudinal, Multicenter, Observational Clinical Study
TLDR
In sum, HI users experienced significant postoperative increases in QoL within their first 12 m of device use, especially when disease-specific measures were used.
The cost-effectiveness of unilateral cochlear implants in UK adults
TLDR
Estimating the cost-effectiveness estimates of UCIs in UK adults with severe to profound hearing loss within the contemporary NHS environment found UCIs remain cost-effective despite changes to clinical practice and increased healthcare unit costs.
Development of the Cochlear Implant Quality of Life Item Bank.
TLDR
An item bank is created that can be used to develop new patient-reported outcome measures that assess CI quality of life (QOL) in the adult CI population and reveals that hypothesis-driven quantitative analyses result in a psychometrically sound CIQOL item bank.

TLDR
HRQOL measures are not intended to measure nor do they accurately reflect the complex difficulties facing CI patients, and only a medium positive effect of cochlear implantation on HRQOL was observed along with a low correlation between non-disease-specific PROMs and speech recognition.
Systematic Review of Quality of Life Assessments after Cochlear Implantation in Older Adults
TLDR
A systematic review and critical evaluation of the available literature on QoL in older adult cochlear implantation and its effect on quality of life (QoL) in older CI users found a need for a standardized, multidimensional, and comprehensive study protocol including all relevant generic and disease-specific instruments.
Healthy aging in elderly cochlear implant recipients: a multinational observational study
TLDR
This study objective is to show that rehabilitation with cochlear implant treatment in the elderly with hearing impairment improves the overall health-related quality of life and general well-being that translate into healthy aging.

Ten‐year health‐related quality of life in cochlear implant recipients
To evaluate the long‐term impact of cochlear implantation on quality of life measured by the Medical Outcomes Study 36‐Item Short‐Form Health Survey (SF‐36). Scores were also converted to the SF‐6D…
Cost-utility analysis of cochlear implants in Korea using different measures of utility
TLDR
Treatment of post-lingual deaf adults with cochlear implants improves the quality of life at a reasonable direct cost and appears to produce net savings for Korean society.
Comparing utility scores before and after hearing-aid provision
TLDR
The estimated cost effectiveness of hearing-aid provision is likely to be dependent on which instrument is used to measure utility, and the mean improved in the HUI3 was significantly higher than the mean improvement according to the EQ-5D or SF-6D.

TLDR
Although there is good reason to believe that hearing aids improve quality of life, available functional health status measures lack the appropriate sensitivity to be used for assessing the benefit of amplification in individuals with hearing impairment.
Cochlear Implants and Quality of Life: A Prospective Study
TLDR
Cochlear implants were associated with statistically significant improvement in quality of life in postlingually deafened adults, and the improvements were largest in the categories concerning communication, feelings of being a burden, isolation, and relations to friends and family.
Cost-utility analysis of the cochlear implant in children.
TLDR
Cochlear implants in profoundly deaf children have a positive effect on quality of life at reasonable direct costs and appear to result in a net savings to society.
Comparing Short Form 6D, Standard Gamble, and Health Utilities Index Mark 2 and Mark 3 utility scores: Results from total hip arthroplasty patients
TLDR
The estimate of change in utility associated with THA was lowest for SF-6D, and additional longitudinal studies to compare utility measures appear to be warranted.
Development and application of a health-related quality-of-life instrument for adults with cochlear implants: The Nijmegen Cochlear Implant Questionnaire
TLDR
The data obtained with the NCIQ reflected that the instrument was able to detect that a cochlear implant had significant effects on several health-related QoL aspects, including the social and psychological domains.

TLDR
Findings seemed to indicate that measures deployed are not interchangeable for use in cost-utility analysis, as both measures deployed were found to have discriminant validity, and to be responsive to changes over time in coronary artery disease conditions.
THE EFFECT OF COCHLEAR IMPLANT USE IN POSTLINGUALLY DEAF ADULTS
TLDR
The effect of CI use on general functioning and well-being proved to be considerable and it was shown that a CI affects several other health domains besides auditory performance.
