With this in mind, our experts will review the paper on Minimum Outcome Measures in the pediatric population. Moreover, they will contemplate the auditory outcomes in young children and the importance of early implantation as well as the surgical aspects in young kids. Our panelists will talk about the specifics of cochlear implantation in low income countries.
