The study of the effect of cochlear implantation on cognitive function is an urgent problem, since the world is increasing the population of elderly and senile people who, as a rule, have certain hearing impairments. Age-related hearing loss is one of the most common health problems associated with aging, affecting two-thirds of people over the age of 70. However, few adults are tested for hearing loss, and even fewer are being treated. It is known that hearing loss - the most common sensory deficit-forms the prerequisites for narrowing the range of cognitive functions in the elderly and can serve as a factor accelerating the progression of cognitive changes. We analyzed the available research on the effects of hearing loss and cochlear implantation on cognitive function. It was revealed that for the most part, they had a small sample, the results were not subjected to the necessary statistical analysis, and the tests used were not adapted for hearing impaired people. After analyzing different tests for assessing cognitive function, HI-MoCA and RBANS-H tests were selected, which are adapted for hearing impaired people, which will allow to reliably assess cognitive function in the pre- and postoperative period, as well as to trace the effect of cochlear implantation on cognitive function in postoperative period.
