The cochlear implant is the most successful of all neural prostheses developed to date. It is
the most effective prosthesis in terms of restoration of function, and the people who have …

There are now many recipients of unilateral cochlear implants who have usable residual
hearing in the non-implanted ear. To avoid auditory deprivation and to provide binaural …

Background: The use of bilateral amplification is now common clinical practice for hearing
aid users but not for cochlear implant recipients. In the past, most cochlear implant recipients …

Objectives: Despite excellent performance in speech recognition in quiet, most cochlear
implant users have great difficulty with speech recognition in noise, music perception …

The purpose of this study was to examine the availability of binaural cues for adult, bilateral
cochlear implant (CI) patients, bimodal patients and hearing preservation patients using a …

Objective: The primary objective of this study was to assess the effect of electric and acoustic
overlap for speech understanding in typical listening conditions using semidiffuse noise …

Due to improved technology, cochlear implant (CI) candidacy has been widened towards
patients with usable residual hearing in the low frequency range. These patients might …

This study compared spatial speech-in-noise performance in two cochlear implant (CI)
patient groups: bimodal listeners, who use a hearing aid contralaterally to support their …

Objective: The objectives of this study were to assess the effectiveness of various measures
of speech understanding in distinguishing performance differences between adult bimodal …

OBJECTIVES: Early intervention in hearing-impaired children may improve language
outcomes and subsequent school and occupational performance. The objective of this study …
