(Adnkronos) - "L'applicazione dell'impianto cocleare, per mezzo di un sistema robotico” preciso e mini invasivo “che aiuta alla preservazione delle strutture anatomiche, è un atto di responsabilità importante perché il danneggiamento o comunque le lesioni anche minime percettibili che vengono create sulla coclea possono determinarne una complicanza, una fibrosi o comunque una situazione che in qualche modo può poi, nel futuro, complicare eventuali applicazioni di altre tecnologie”. Così il responsabile di Audiologia Impianti Cocleari dell’ospedale Martini di Torino, Diego Di Lisi, parlando della nuova tecnica di chirurgia robotica otologica di precisione messa in atto con strumenti di Med-El.

00:00When we talk about children, it is important to touch on the issue of precociousness.
00:04In the sense that today we are able to diagnose deafness in the first days of a child's life.
00:13This is thanks to the Neonatal Hearing Screening, which has become universal here in Italy.
00:19These children are then sent to second-level audiological centers for diagnosis.
00:25This diagnosis can be performed with the right equipment, technology and skills in very early stages.
00:33What does this mean?
00:35It means a precociousness of what are then the therapeutic prospects.
00:40Acoustic prosthesis in moderate deafness and later in deep deafness,
00:50the cochlear implant, which has changed the fate of these children.
00:56What does this entail?
01:00It entails the fact that we assume an act of responsibility in a very early stage of the child compared to what will be his life.
01:08Therefore, robotic surgery, thanks to this possibility of inserting the electrode according to a speed and a programmed direction of insertion,
01:24allows to be particularly self-traumatic and therefore to allow,
01:31to leave open to the future those that may be the new applications of the future in a child of a few months.
