Resumen:
Cochlear implants are indicated in severe to profound hearing loss with no benefit with hearing aids. Since the beginning of cochlear implants 30 years ago, auditory outcomes have been improving due to changes introduced in differ-ent areas: electrode design, strategy, surgical technique... Given good results within this period of time, cochlear implant indication has varied too. The aim of this paper is to show an update on indication criteria for cochlear implantation in Navarre, for application in daily practice. The indications are established by consensus amongst the hospitals of the region.
