Abstract Objectives: To compare the auditory abilities and speech performance of children with a profound prelingual bilateral hearing‐impairment when subjected to cochlear implant (CI) before or after 2 years age. analyze complications that arose during, as result of, implantation process in these groups. Design: Prospective cohort single‐subject, repeated‐measures study hearing impairment CI. Setting: Tertiary referral center program pediatric CI from 1991. Patients: This analyzed 130...

ConclusionsOur study data demonstrate the additional benefit derived from continued use of a contralateral hearing aid (HA) post-cochlear implantation for speech recognition ability in quiet and noise. Postoperative bimodal stimulation is recommended all subjects who show some ear as it may offer binaural listening advantages various situations encountered everyday life.ObjectivesTo assess benefits experienced HA users implanted with cochlear implant (CI) (score ≥ 20% disyllabic test). The...

Conclusion: The use of a hearing aid (HA) in combination with cochlear implant (CI) significantly improved performance for speech perception quiet, noise, and localization compared monaural conditions. No significant differences functional were observed following optimization HA fitting. Objectives: To evaluate the binaural benefits derived from using contralateral conjunction CI subjects nonimplanted ear effects fitting optimization. Methods: Fifteen adult users, intra-subject controls,...

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Transimpedance measurements from cochlear implant electrodes have the potential to identify anomalous electrode array placement, such as tip fold-over (TFO) or fold-back, basal kinking, buckling. Analysing transimpedance may thus replace intraoperative post-operative radiological imaging detect any misplacements. A algorithm was previously developed deviations a normal position with aim of intraoperatively detecting TFO. The had been...

Introduction This study evaluates cochleovestibular implants (CVI) for improving auditory and vestibular function in patients with bilateral vestibulopathy severe-to-profound hearing loss. CVI uniquely combines stimulation, offering a potential solution dual impairments balance. Methods Ten underwent implantation. Auditory was assessed pure-tone audiometry (PTA) speech recognition at baseline, 3, 9 months post-implantation. Vestibular measured using the Dynamic Gait Index (DGI), Sensory...

Cochlear implants provide an electrical signal that may assist in the development of central auditory system. In order to capitalize on developmental processes associated with a maturing system, many authors suggest cochlear implantation should be performed at very young ages. examine contributions one versus two children, we examined performance over three years post-implantation children who received sequential implants. Twenty-nine sequentially implanted were studied. All Corporation...
