Abstract: Cochlear implantation is the gold standard of hearing rehabilitation for patients with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss. Cochlear Implants (CI) are nowadays essential for these patients. Adapted to rapid developments and the resulting expansion of indications, the implantation principles have consequently been subtly refined and further developed. For the established indications like bimodal or bilateral CI care and CI for single-sided deafness, the detailed developments that raised primarily from the observations that residual hearing after the procedure can be preserved. This also played a significant role in the diversification of Cochlear Implantation. Since the audiological criteria for cochlear implants have also been expanded due to the results achieved with the CI compared to optimal fitted hearing aids, CI´s are also suitable for patients with, in some cases, substantial, residual hearing. This current overview summarizes developments that are receiving more attention and increasing application in everyday clinical practice.
