No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To evaluate the combination of electric hearing through Cochlear Implant and acoustic hearing through hearing aid in bimodal users with moderate-to-severe hearing loss in the non-implanted ear. The research will also provide pilot study data on unilateral Cochlear Implant recipients with residual useful acoustic hearing in the implanted ear whose acoustic hearing has been preserved.

Conditions

  • Deafness

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Speech perception tests and self-rating questionnaire

Speech perception test results and self-rating questionnaire scores will be analyzed by means of non-parametric statistical tests. The statistical tests will be chosen in accordance with the number and type of variables in each test. Correlation between audiological variables (aided and unaided hearing thresholds in the non implanted ear, aided speech perception abilities in the HA-alone condition) and the bilateral-bimodal benefit will be examined. Moreover, possible relationship between self-rating questionnaire scores and speech perception test results will be assessed.
