Speech Development in Prelingually Deaf Children with Cochlear Implants

Abstract: Since the early 1980s, cochlear implantation has been an approved method for treating profound bilateral sensorineural hearing loss in children. It is widely believed that the use of this device would significantly benefit young deaf children's development of speech and ability to participate in aural–oral communication. However, whereas significant improvement in speech reception and perception skills following implantation has been widely documented, cochlear prostheses as speech production aids have been st… Show more

“…However, while some DHH children gain access to language via speech through hearing aids and/or CIs, some do not [54][55][56][57]. Studies report highly variable success [58][59][60][61][62]. Without a meta-study to compare rates and reasons for CI effectiveness across studies, it is impossible to glean what findings these studies have in common; they use different methodologies, test for different auditory functions, and study heterogeneous groups [63].…”

“…The first problem is that these studies report highly variable success (Bouchard et al, 2008;Fink et al, 2007;Peterson et al, 2010;Szagun, 2008), even in studies by enthusiastic promoters of CIs (such as Gulya et al, 2010). One would hope to be able to compare studies, to glean whatever reliable information they might offer to these families.…”

“…One would hope to be able to compare studies, to glean whatever reliable information they might offer to these families. However, many cannot be compared with each other because they use different methodologies and test for different auditory functions, some of which are only minimally related to language (Bouchard et al, 2008). Further, the children tested are a heterogeneous group with respect to the age of onset of hearing loss, the age of diagnosis of hearing loss, the age of implantation, the particular device implanted, the particular surgical technique used, the amount and type of rehabilitation after surgery, residual hearing in the unimplanted ear, socio-economic status of the family, and other factors, all of which will affect outcomes (Santarelli et al, 2008).…”

“…There are a few factors that affect speech perception in children with cochlear implants: the age of onset and the degree of hearing impairment, the duration of hearing impairment, the age of receiving a cochlear implant, the duration of cochlear implant usage, the duration of educational programme, child's characteristics and family involvement [3,23].…”
