Abstract:

PURPOSE: To verify the effectiveness of remote programming of cochlear implants by stimulation levels and results in the perception of speech and free-field audiometry tests. METHODS: Twelve patients from both genders, aged between 18 and 59 years, users of internal cochlear implant and speech processor of the same model for at least 12 months, were selected. Both the remote programming (RP) and the live programming (LP) were performed on the same day, measuring the minimum (T) and maximum (C) stimulation levels of five electrodes with the interpolation of the remaining ones.

Abstract:

Progressive sensorineural hearing loss is the most important early symptom of a cerebellopontine angle process. A case report is presented of a 42-year-old woman who was referred to our department in 1979. Oil cistemography showed non filling of the left internal acoustic canal. Audiometry was planned as the method of control, but she did not return until nine- years later. In 1988, an acoustic neurionoma of 4 cm diameter was found in the left CPA. Pure tone audiometry and speech audiometry showed that during the nine-year interval, her 60 dB flat sensorineural hearing loss and speech percepti

Abstract:

Young healthy adults can hear tones up to at least 20 kHz. However, clinical audiometry, by which hearing loss is diagnosed, is limited at high frequencies to 8 kHz. Evidence suggests there is salient information at extended high frequencies (EHFs; 8 to 20 kHz) that may influence speech intelligibility, but whether that information is used in challenging listening conditions remains unknown. Difficulty understanding speech in noisy environments is the most common concern people have about their hearing and usually the first sign of age-related hearing loss.

The advent of cochlear implants has enormously improved the quality of sensory perception in deaf children.

We report 4 prelingually deaf children (mean age=10.5; SD=1.08), affected by a genetically determined bilateral deafness, due to GJB2 gene mutation Cx26.

Hearing loss in patients of older age groups is a common problem. Numerous studies show that more than 69% of patients with hearing loss are at the age of 60 and older. The aim of the work was to analyze the indicators of complex assessment of hearing in patients of older age groups. The study involved 300 patients aged 60 to 95 (mean age - 78.9 ± 12.9), who in addition to the study of hearing (tonal threshold and speech audiometry) were surveyed by using a questionnaire for elderly people with hearing impairment (HHIE).

Introduction The bone-anchored hearing aid (BAHA) is a bone conduction system that transmits the sound directly to the inner ear by surpassing the skin impedance and the subcutaneous tissue. It is indicated for patients with mixed, conductive and unilateral sensorineural hearing loss who did not benefit from conventional hearing aids (HAs). Although the benefits from BAHA are well demonstrated internationally, this field still lacks studies in Brazil.

The results indicate that consonant confusions are better predicted by lexical knowledge than by acoustic properties of the stimulus word.

Steady-state responses are evoked potentials that maintain a stable frequency content over time. In the frequency domain, responses to rapidly presented stimuli show a spectrum with peaks at the rate of stimulation and its harmonics. Auditory steady-state responses can be reliably evoked by tones that have been amplitude-modulated at rates between 75 and 110 Hz. These responses show great promise for objective audiometry, because they can be readily recorded in infants and are unaffected by sleep. Responses to multiple tones presented simultaneously can be independently assessed if each tone i

The sources and consequences of a sensorineural hearing loss are diverse. While several approaches have aimed at disentangling the physiological and perceptual consequences of different etiologies, hearing deficit characterization and rehabilitation have been dominated by the results from pure-tone audiometry. Here, we present a novel approach based on data-driven profiling of perceptual auditory deficits that attempts to represent auditory phenomena that are usually hidden by, or entangled with, audibility loss. We hypothesize that the hearing deficits of a given listener, both at hearing thr

Purpose We aimed to develop and validate the Musicians' Hearing Handicap Index (MHHI), a new self-evaluation tool for quantifying occupation-related auditory difficulties in music professionals. Although pure-tone audiometry is often considered the “gold standard” and is usually employed as the main instrument for hearing assessment, it cannot fully describe the impact of hearing dysfunction. The MHHI is an attempt to complement the hearing impairment assessment toolbox and is based on a unique approach to quantify the effects of hearing-related symptoms or hearing loss on the performance of m

Abstract:

Background It has been noted in the literature that there is a gap between clinical assessment and real-world performance. Real-world conversations entail visual and audio information, yet there are not any audiological assessment tools that include visual information. Virtual reality (VR) technology has been applied to various areas, including audiology. However, the use of VR in speech-in-noise perception has not yet been investigated. Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of virtual space (VS) on speech performance and its feasibility to be used as a speech test

The reliable prediction of cochlear implant (CI) speech perception outcomes is highly relevant and can facilitate the monitoring of postoperative hearing performance. To date, multiple audiometric, demographic, and surgical variables have shown some degree of correlation with CI speech perception outcomes.

The compressor was implemented digitally and incorporated a delay to reduce overshoot. We studied four different input-output configurations, including a linear reference condition. Normal-hearing and hearing-impaired subjects participated in the experiments testing perception of meaningful sentences as well as nonsense CVCs in carrier phrases.

Background: With improved surgical techniques and electrode design, an increasing number of cochlear implant (CI) recipients have preserved acoustic hearing in the implanted ear, thereby resulting in bilateral acoustic hearing.

The acoustic bandwidth necessary to obtain speech perception benefit from acoustic hearing in the implanted ear is unknown.

Background: Previous research has suggested that use of nonlinear frequency compression (NLFC) can improve audibility for high-frequency sounds and speech recognition of children with moderate to profound high-frequency hearing loss. Furthermore, previous studies have generally found no detriment associated with the use of NLFC. However, there have been no published studies examining the effect of NLFC on the performance of children with cookie-bite audiometric configurations. For this configuration of hearing loss, frequency-lowering processing will likely move high-frequency sounds to a lowe

Hearing aid (HA) users differ greatly in their speech-in-noise (SIN) outcomes. This could be because the degree to which current HA fittings can address individual listening needs differs across users and listening situations.

This study explored aided SIN outcome for three of these profiles in different noise scenarios. Thirty-one older habitual HA users and six yo
