Effects of Interaural Frequency and Loudness Mismatch on SSD-CI Performance
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Treatment-modifications to CI speech processor program. Specifically reducing interaural frequency mismatch in experienced SSD-CI recipients., Treatment-modifications to CI speech processor program to reduced interaural frequency mismatch in newly implanted SSD-CI recipients., and 1 other intervention for Outcomes. Completed, enrolled 45 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Interaural loudness and pitch mismatch in single-sided deaf cochlear implant (SSD-CI) recipients reduces binaural processing cues and contributes to performance outcomes, specifically speech understanding in noise and localization. The study aims to improve binaural cues through speech processor program modifications that reduce interaural mismatches.
