Abstract :
A comparative study of heå and speech outcome in patients after unilateral cochlear implant and bimodal heå.
Objective : Objective of the study was to evaluate early heå and speech outcomes of Cochlear Implant in patients with bimodal stimulation ( patients who use Cochlear Implant in one ear & heå aid in the other) and compare it with the patients using Cochlear Implant only .
Method : Study was conducted in Department of ENT , Civil Hospital , Ahmedabad . We studied & evaluated early outcome of Cochlear Implant in 25 patients of 1–5 years age group, who used Bimodal stimulation & compared It with 25 patients who used CI only. Study was carried out over period of 2 years & Heå & Speech Ability was recorded on Category of Auditory Performance(CAP) Scale & Speech Intelligibility Rating(SIR) Scale at the intervals of 6 months .
Result :. Patients who used bimodal stimulation showed better scores on Category of Auditory Performance Scale(CAP) & Speech Intelligibility Rating (SIR) compared to the patients who did not use bimodal stimulation.
Conclusion : Patients with bimodal stimulation showed better auditory & verbal responses compared to patients who did not receive bimodal stimulations. So use of bimodal stimulation should be recommended.
