Cochlear implants (CIs) are the world's most successful sensory prosthesis and have been
the subject of intense research and development in recent decades. We critically review the …

Although cochlear implants (CIs) are a viable treatment option for severe hearing loss in
adults of any age, older adults may be at a disadvantage compared with younger adults. CIs …

Thresholds of asymmetric pulses presented to cochlear implant (CI) listeners depend on
polarity in a way that differs across subjects and electrodes. It has been suggested that lower …

Neural health is of great interest to determine individual degeneration patterns for improving
speech perception in cochlear implant (CI) users. Therefore, in recent years, several studies …

After hearing loss retrograde degeneration of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) has been
described. Studies modeling the effects of degeneration mostly omitted peripheral …

Previous psychophysical and modeling studies suggest that cathodic stimulation by a
cochlear implant (CI) may preferentially activate the peripheral processes of the auditory …

Objectives Cochlear implant (CI) users exhibit large variability in understanding speech in
noise. Past work in CI users found that spectral and temporal resolution correlates with …

Objectives: The primary objective of this study was to quantify local (within ear) and global
(between ear) variation in the cochlear implant (CI) electrode-neuron interface (ENI) using …

Speech recognition outcomes are highly variable among pediatric and adult cochlear
implant (CI) listeners. Although there is some evidence that the quality of the electrode …

Cochlear implant (CI) users have poor temporal pitch perception, as revealed by two key
outcomes of rate discrimination tests:(i) rate discrimination thresholds (RDTs) are typically …
