Thank you for posting this video. I have a Q90 CI for 3 years now and also have the Naida Link which is I think 2 years. I forget how life changing the CI had been for me. Without the CI I can only hear buzzing. Image going from being pretty much deaf to hearing fairly well in all situations. People ask me about he CI every so often as my CI is very visible. Mark
Great to see this overview. The Q90 is already a few years old ---> wait? Also would love to see a review of Cochlear Nucleus 7....thanks for the great videos....
I have both Naida Q70 and Q90, they both are decent sound processors, and I like the slim form factor. I can't wait to possibly get a pair of Naida M90 sound processors (been waiting for the Bluetooth connectivity for aggggeeeesssss, ever since I got the ancient Auria sound processor as my first BTE sound processor, and I honestly prefer BTE sound processor).
Thank you, great information! I am having CI surgery in the spring and chose AB with the Q90 and CROS option. It can’t come fast enough, as I’ve had total bilateral hearing loss and vestibular loss since December. I think it is great that the implant is upgradable and can be used with Phonak ALDs and eventually SWORD!
My question is can AB help remove tinnitus? I have had severe tinnitus for 26 years. Sounds like a screeching smoke alarm. I hate it with all my being. Looking for technology that can cancel it out.
I have an AB Q70 and can upgrade my hearing aid. I’m hoping the Newest Phonak with a Roger (for the Q70) will work best for me. My audiologist isn’t recommending this. I don’t know why that might be the case from what info I have been able to gather so far. Do you have a video about using AB CIs and Phonak aids?
I received the mail from AB, somewhere in the spring, saying that they would end their support with q70 by September 2019. I'm also in a need of an upgrade as I got my q70 about more than 5 years back. I'm hoping this might be the upgrade i need.
This great! Even after being implanted a month ago and activated 3 weeks ago, I am still curious and looking for more information on how to improve my CI. I do have one question though, can you make a video on how the Naida Link Hearing aid works specifically. So I know what functions are available with it and how I can maximize my hearing with it. Thank you.
Hi Cliff, thanks for the video, always professional and clear. What is your experience withthe phantom electrodes? it sounds a little bit marketing to me but i am sure sonova did something interesting, it is just that i´d like to hear from peers.
I just received notification from AB that I will be getting the new Naida CI Q90 processor with Bluetooth. I have a new car that is also Bluetooth compatible. I don't have a cell phone that has Bluetooth. What phone would be best for me to purchase. There are so many and I don't know how to choose the best one. I don't use many apps so that's data is not that important to me as I use my laptop. thank you for any additional info. you can provide.
Hi Marilyn. I presume that the Q90 with Bluetooth will be Bluetooth Classic. In this case, you should be able to use any smartphone. From a personal preference standpoint, I like the Samsung Galaxy devices, but I know there are plenty of people who obviously love their iPhones. I also own an iPhone for hearing aid reviews and I still prefer my Galaxy.
Dear Dr cliff, I hope you are doing well, my name is Mahmood, I am from Afghanistan. I have one patient, that he has ear problems, He had not lesson, we came to Pakistan for cochlear implant operation, in Pakistan two companies devices (ADVANCED BIONICS Naida Q30 and Cochlear 7S CP1002 implant) are available with the mentioned companies, can you please let me know which ones is the best for our patient, thank you in advance for your support and advising. Best regards
Our daughter Gurnoor is 16months old. Sadly, She born with congenital hearing loss and needs bilateral cochlear implant. Can you please suggest me the best implant which is upgradeable and of course in budget.
My 18 month old daughter is having profound hearing loss. I want an implant for her. Can you please suggest me the best implant which is upgradable and of course in budget
You mentioned that the Naida CROS was used when the person had no hearing in the other ear. Does that mean that it wouldn't be good for me, as I have a profound loss in that ear so I hear some
Dr. Olson - awesome video. We want to do Hebrew subtitles for some of your clips - this one first. Could we run the Hebrew subtitled videos on our channel with all necessary attributions to you of course? Much thnx for your approval and response.

I don't have a cochlear but may be thinking about it. I understand the sound is awful. somewhere between donald duck and the chipmunks. Is this correct or has it changed
@@DrCliffAuD Thanks for that clarification. Next issue. I see that different ENT offices sell the different brands of implants. Similar to going to a car dealership to buy a Ford, Chevy, or Dodge. I don't know the ins and outs of what I really need, So I don't know which dealership / store to search out
@@charlesphillips5723 Outcomes are similar with each brand. If they only offer one or two, (there are currently only 3 manufacturers) it is likely because they feel they can get to know one brand better than 3.
@@DrCliffAuD Da AB Bis in die kleinsten Fohren und FB-Gruppen organisiert ist und jede Kritig adabsurdum stellt ist es föllig sinnlos darüber zu reden. Mein Tipp an alle die eine Implantation vor haben. Schaut Euch auch andere Hersteller an. SEVICE IST BEI AB WENN PROBLEME KOMMEN EIN FREMDWORT
