Language Development01:22

Language Development

Children master language quickly and with relative ease, supported by both biological predisposition and reinforcement. B. F. Skinner (1957) proposed that language is learned through reinforcement, while Noam Chomsky (1965) argued that language acquisition mechanisms are biologically determined.
The critical period for language acquisition suggests that the ability to acquire language is at its peak early in life. As people age, this proficiency decreases. Language development begins very...
Double Resonance Techniques: Overview01:12

Double Resonance Techniques: Overview

Double resonance techniques in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy involve the simultaneous application of two different frequencies or radiofrequency pulses to manipulate and observe two distinct nuclear spins. One important application of double resonance is spin decoupling, which selectively suppresses coupling with one type of nucleus while observing the NMR signal from another nucleus, simplifying the spectrum and enhancing resolution.
Spin decoupling is usually achieved by...
Extraction: Advanced Methods00:56

Extraction: Advanced Methods

Metal ions can be separated from one another by complexation with organic ligands–the chelating agent– to form uncharged chelates. Here, the chelating agent must contain hydrophobic groups and behave as a weak acid, losing a proton to bind with the metal. Since most organic ligands used in this process are insoluble or undergo oxidation in the aqueous phase, the chelating agent is initially added to the organic phase and extracted into the aqueous phase. The metal-ligand complex is formed in...

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Cochlear implants are vital for hearing restoration in severe to profound hearing loss.
  • Speech processor technology continuously evolves to improve speech perception.
  • The MED-EL Opus speech processor introduces advanced features like fine structure programming (FSP).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the long-term speech perception outcomes in quiet and noisy conditions using the Opus speech processor with FSP.
  • To compare the performance of the Opus processor with FSP against the previous Tempo+ processor with CIS strategy.

Main Methods:

  • A longitudinal study involving eight post-lingual cochlear implant patients.
  • Baseline testing with Tempo+ (CIS) followed by 1-year follow-up testing with Opus (FSP).
  • Speech perception assessed using monosyllable and sentence tests in quiet and noise (15, 10, 5 dB SNR).

Main Results:

  • A general trend towards improved speech perception scores across all tested conditions.
  • Statistically significant improvement (p < 0.05) was observed specifically for sentence recognition in noise at a 10 dB SNR.
  • No significant improvements were noted for other tests, though trends were positive.

Conclusions:

  • The Opus speech processor with FSP demonstrates potential for enhancing speech perception, particularly in challenging noise conditions.
  • The extended frequency spectrum and FSP strategy contribute to measurable benefits for cochlear implant users.
  • Further research with larger cohorts may reveal broader benefits of the Opus processor across various listening scenarios.
