Design: Thirty CICI and 30 CI-only subjects were tested on a battery of speech perception tests in noise that use an eight-loudspeaker array. Results: On average, ClCl subject's performance with speech in noise was significantly better than the Cl-only subjects. Conclusion: The CICI group showed significantly better performance on speech perception in noise compared with the CI-only subjects, supporting the hypothesis that CICI is more beneficial than CI only. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Ear and Hearing, 31(2), p. 296-298 | Publisher: | Lippincott Williams & Wilkins | Place of Publication: | United States of America | ISSN: | 0196-0202 1538-4667 |
