Abstract

Tinnitus ("ringing in the ears") is a serious health condition that can negatively affect a patient's quality of life. Although there is presently no way to cure tinnitus, there are some good, well-established methods that can significantly reduce the burden of tinnitus. Importantly, the only way to success is to understand the detailed knowledge offered by clinicians and researchers. Based on these concepts, the book incorporates updated developments as well as future perspectives in the ever-expanding field of tinnitus. This book can also serve as a reference for persons involved in this field whether they are clinicians, researchers, or patients. Once we've integrated the views of various disciplines and treatment options, we can go forth to manage tinnitus well.

Abstract

The auditory system is one of the finest structures in the human body. Although its anatomical structure is so small compared to other organs, without it, it would greatly affect a person's basic life. Hearing loss, also known as hearing impairment, is a partial or total inability to hear. When people communicate with others, listening is always the first step. That is why Helen Keller once said, "Blindness separates people from things; deafness separates people from people." To avoid the "epidemic" of hearing loss in the near future, it is necessary to promote early screening, change public attitudes toward noise, and wear hearing aids appropriately. Based on the contributions of many authors, whom I sincerely respect, this book incorporates updated developments as well as future perspectives in the ever-expanding field of hearing loss. This book can also serve as a reference for persons who are involved in this field whether they are clinicians, researchers, or patients.

Abstract

The pharynx is an incredible structure in the human body. The pharynx moves food or water from the mouth to the esophagus and moves air from the nasal and oral cavities to the larynx or voice box. There are some conditions that can cause the pharynx to not function properly, affecting digestion, respiration, phonation, or sleep. One of the most challenging conditions is pharyngeal cancer. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the pharynx and addresses advances in the treatment of pharyngeal disorders, including surgery and reconstruction techniques.

Abstract

Telehealth includes clinical and non-clinical services, such as monitoring, diagnosis, and treatment, as well as delivery of preventative care and health promotion. Telemedicine is a more common term that describes remote clinical services. The major impact of COVID-19 has caused telemedicine to become mainstream since the end of 2019. Clinicians are having to use tele-consultation, tele-monitoring, tele-pharmacy, tele-rehabilitation, tele-surgery and other remote methods and technologies to assess and treat patients. In patient-centric telehealth/telemedicine, personalized data generated by the various monitoring technologies are jointly managed by patients and medical staff, moving us ever closer to the ideal of precision medicine. With contributions from many respected authors, this book incorporates updated developments as well as future prospects for the ever-expanding field of telehealth/telemedicine. It can also serve as a reference for anyone involved in this field, whether they are clinicians, researchers or patients.

Abstract

Management of paranasal sinus disorders is not only a test of knowledge but it is also an art form. Great progress has been made on endoscopic sinus surgery in recent decades and this technique lets us look into the remote corners of sinuses. However, we still have a lot of challenging issues. The only way to solve these problems is to face them. Based on these concepts, this book incorporates new clinical and research developments as well as future perspectives in the ever-expanding field of rhinology. The book is a comprehensive reference for ENT residents and practicing otolaryngologists who wish to expand their expertise, develop a broader armamentarium of techniques, and successfully manage their patients with sinonasal disorders.
