Summary

Pediatric audiologists commonly enable advanced noise management features for children with cochlear implants (CIs), with a trend towards automaticity. Further research is needed to establish evidence-based guidance for optimal feature programming.

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Pediatric Cochlear Implantation
  • Hearing Technology

Background:

  • Advanced noise management features in cochlear implants (CIs) aim to improve speech understanding in noisy environments for pediatric recipients.
  • Clinical practice patterns for these features are not well-defined, leading to potential variability in care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify common clinical practice patterns for advanced noise management features in children with cochlear implants (CIs).
  • To evaluate trends in feature provision based on clinician experience and technology familiarity.

Main Methods:

  • A mixed-methods survey (quantitative and qualitative) was electronically administered to pediatric audiologists.
  • Data collected included approach to feature provision, age of implementation, and respondent demographics.
  • Descriptive statistics were used to analyze practice patterns and demographics.

Main Results:

  • 160 pediatric audiologists from the US and Canada participated.
  • A high percentage (73.8%) enabled automatic directional microphones.
  • The vast majority (91%) enabled advanced noise processing features in main programs.
  • Top-ranked features for school-age children were automatic noise reduction, automatic directional microphones, and concha-level microphones.

Conclusions:

  • Significant variability exists in enabling advanced noise management features for pediatric CI users.
  • Patient and provider characteristics, along with limited evidence, contribute to this variation.
  • A clear trend towards automaticity in noise management is observed.
  • More research is needed to develop evidence-based guidelines for programming these features in children.
