Auditory Perception

722
The auditory system is essential for sound perception, utilizing various critical structures. When sound waves enter the outer ear, they travel through the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted to the middle ear, where three tiny bones – the malleus, incus, and stapes – amplify the sound. This amplification is crucial, as it ensures that the sound vibrations are strong enough to be conveyed to the inner ear. These vibrations then reach the...

Summary

Digital audio streaming (DAS) allows cochlear implant (CI) speech testing without a sound booth. Pre-processing DAS signals to mimic sound booth acoustics eliminates performance differences, improving CI care accessibility.

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Speech-Language Pathology

Background:

  • Cochlear implant (CI) speech-perception testing typically requires specialized sound booths, limiting accessibility.
  • Digital audio streaming (DAS) offers a potential alternative for CI speech testing, bypassing the need for sound booths.
  • Previous research has explored wired direct audio input (DAI), but wireless DAS for CI speech testing remains unevaluated.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare speech perception in CI users using DAS versus traditional sound booth (SB) testing.
  • To assess if pre-processing DAS signals to emulate SB acoustics impacts speech perception scores.
  • To determine the feasibility of remote CI speech testing via DAS.

Main Methods:

  • Experiment 1: Compared speech perception scores in quiet and noise using DAS (unprocessed) versus SB in 11 CI users.
  • Experiment 2: Compared scores using DAS (processed to emulate SB) versus SB and DAS (unprocessed) in 11 CI users, focusing on sentences in noise.
  • Speech perception was measured using monosyllabic words and sentences.

Main Results:

  • In Experiment 1, DAS (unprocessed) showed no difference in quiet but significantly better scores in noise compared to SB.
  • In Experiment 2, DAS (processed) showed no significant difference compared to SB.
  • DAS (unprocessed) consistently yielded significantly better scores than SB or processed DAS.

Conclusions:

  • Pre-processing DAS signals to replicate SB acoustic conditions effectively bridges the performance gap between DAS and SB testing.
  • This approach enables accurate speech perception assessment for cochlear implant users without requiring a sound booth.
  • The findings support the use of DAS with acoustic emulation for accessible and reliable CI speech testing.
