Multisensory training improves auditory spatial processing following bilateral cochlear implantation.

Cochlear implants (CIs) partially restore hearing to the deaf by directly stimulating the inner ear. In individuals fitted with CIs, lack of auditory experience due to loss of hearing before language acquisition can adversely impact outcomes. For example, adults with early-onset hearing loss generally do not integrate inputs from both ears effectively when fitted with bilateral CIs (BiCIs). Her...

Speech development and auditory performance in children after cochlear implantation

 Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to determine the auditory performance of congenitally deaf children and the effect of cochlear implantation (CI) on speech intelligibility. Methods: Aprospective study was undertaken on 47 children in a pediatric tertiary referral center for CI. All children were deaf prelingually and were younger than 8 years of age. They were followed up until 5...

Bilateral Cochlear Implantation in the United States: Two

Research and clinical experience over the last two or three decades has shown that the use of one cochlear implant, or unilateral implantation, provides significant benefit over the use of hearing aids for adults and children who have severe and profound hearing loss. Consequently, unilateral cochlear implantation has become accepted as standard of care for those with such hearing loss. This te...

The Relationship Between Reaction Time of Electrical Stapedius Reflex and Auditory Performance in Cochlear-Implanted Children

Background: A common concern in some cochlear-implanted children is the lack of desired progress in auditory and listening skills. Such a concern remains despite proper verbal processor programming, additional disabilities, and continuous participation in hearing rehabilitation programs. A more detailed assessment of pathways and centers of the auditory processing at the lower end of the brain ...

Cochlear implantation of auditory neuropathy.

Auditory neuropathy (AN) is a hearing disorder that presents with a grossly abnormal or absent neural response as measured by evoked potentials in the presence of normal outer hair cell function evidenced by present otoacoustic emissions or cochlear microphonics. Rehabilitation for patients with AN is challenging due to abnormal temporal encoding at the auditory nerve leading to severely impair...
