Bilateral cochlear implantation is reported to be associated with improved sound localization and enhanced speech perception in noise. This study proposed that bilateral implantation might also promote…

Peer reviewedValimaa, Taina T.; Maatta, Taisto K.; Lopponen, Heikki J.; Sorri, Martti J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2002
A study investigated how 19 Finnish adults who were postlingually severely or profoundly hearing impaired would relearn to recognize vowels after receiving multi-channel cochlear implants. Average vowel recognition was 68% 6 months after switch-on, and 80% 24 months after switch-on. Vowels y, e, and o were most difficult. (Contains references.)…

Peer reviewedValimaa, Taina T.; Maatta, Taisto K.; Lopponen, Heikki J.; Sorri, Martti J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2002

Two years after the switch-on, the mean recognition for consonants was 71%. Consonants with alveolar, palatal, or velar transitions were better recognized.…
