[Speech perception in children fitted with Nucleus mini system 22 implants]

Summary

Cochlear implants benefit European children, with over 380 implanted. Speech perception tests show children with later onset and shorter duration of deafness perform better, and performance improves with implant experience.

Area of Science:

  • Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Pediatric Medicine

Context:

  • Over 380 European children have received Nucleus cochlear implants.
  • Cochlear AG developed speech perception tests in German, French, and English.
  • The study assesses auditory skills in pediatric cochlear implant recipients.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the benefits of cochlear implantation in European children.
  • To assess a hierarchy of auditory skills, including speech sound detection, pattern identification, identification, and recognition.
  • To evaluate the impact of auditory-visual skills on cochlear implant outcomes.

Summary:

  • Over 100 European children implanted with Nucleus devices were assessed using a battery of speech perception tests.

  • All participants scored significantly above chance on initial auditory skill tests.
  • Results indicate that children with later onset and shorter duration of deafness, as well as increased implant experience, tend to perform better on auditory tasks.

    • Impact:

    • Provides evidence for the effectiveness of cochlear implants in improving auditory skills in European children.
    • Highlights the importance of onset and duration of deafness, and implant experience, in predicting auditory performance.
    • Informs clinical practice and future research on pediatric cochlear implantation.
