That is, in addition to the usual biological health assessment, the impact of disease and treatment on the patient\u2019s functioning in the physical, mental, and social areas is an important parameter. The aim of this study was to assess HRQoL before and after using a cochlear implant (CI) in adults with profound hearing loss.\n<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>There were 104 patients who qualified for the study. All gave informed and free consent. The study involved adults with bilateral hearing loss above 81\u00a0dB HL and rated according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification scheme as having profound hearing loss (which includes deafness). In each participant, the hearing loss was postlingual, that is, it occurred after speech and language had developed. The assessment of quality of life (AQoL-8D) questionnaire was used to assess the health-related quality of life in the study participants.\n<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Quality of life significantly increased (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) after cochlear implantation in almost all domains (except the pain dimension).
