This is particularly true when providing patients with severe hearing loss or deafness with a cochlear implant (CI). This treatment represents a lifelong care process that requires continuous quality control over time. On the initiative of the Executive Committee of the German Society of Otorhinolaryngology (Deutsche Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Hals-Nasen-Ohren-Heilkunde, Kopf- und Hals-Chirurgie e.V., DGHNO-KHC), a national German CI registry (Deutsches Cochlear Implant Register, DCIR) was established in January 2022. This article focuses on the first demographic and baseline data of the DCIR.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The DCIR covers the complete therapeutic process from indication, surgery, fitting and lifelong aftercare in CI therapy. By the end of 2022, 75 hospitals in Germany had agreed to contribute to the DCIR.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>During the year 2022, 63 hospitals actively contributed data to the DCIR. Pseudonymized data from 2,292 CI implantations (2,176 primary implantations, 99 explantations with immediate re-implantations and 17 re-implantations following an earlier explantation) in 2,108 patients were documented. Cochlear implantation was accomplished in 1,807 adults (\u2265\u200918 years) and 301 children (&lt;\u200918 years). Fourty patients (1,9%) were children\u2009&lt;\u20091 year of age and 55 (2,6%) were patients\u00a0&gt;\u00a085 years. From the total of 2,292 implantations, 226 (9.9%) were performed as simultaneous bilateral implantations (CI implantation in both ears of 113 patients on the same day of surgery) and 412 implantations (19.1% of 2,162 implantations with data provided on the contralateral ear\u2019s hearing status) were in patients with single sided deafness (normal hearing in the contralateral ear). In addition, the reported complications in 2022 were also evaluated. Seven reports (0.4%) of mild to moderate severe facial nerve dysfunctions were documented. No reports of severe or total facial nerve dysfunction (House-Brackmann grade V\/VI), meningitis or death related to CI therapy were documented.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Although still in the start-up phase, these initial DCIR data already provide an interesting first insight into the demographic structure and baseline data of CI therapy in Germany.
