A database application to manage patients' data with a cochlear implant.
We have developed a database application software using Delphi 6 to manage patients' data with a cochlear implant. The software contains multiple functional modules used to record patients' medical and audiological evaluation, evaluation of hearing abilities, evaluation of speech and language status, evaluation of psychological status, rehabilitation and specific training, processor programming, follow-up and support, etc.. It also can generate various reports, convert patient's data to SPSS format for statistics purpose. The aim of the software is to help the decision-making for a cochlear implant, to develop a better pre-operative procedures that can predict how well a patient will perform with a cochlear implant, and also to reach a level by future research that will enable all implant patients to be "better-performing" patients.
