Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • PEPS-C speech test battery

    Test battery of 7 speech tests examining prosodic elements of speech, each section scored out of 16 (112 in total higher scores better outcome)

    Tested at one time point at day 1 of study after recruitment in both Cochlear Implant Alone and Cochlear Implant and Hearing Aid Together conditions

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • AB words speech test

    Tested at one time point at day 1 of study after recruitment in both Cochlear Implant Alone and Cochlear Implant and Hearing Aid Together conditions

  • SSQ12 Questionnaire

    Tested at one time point at day 1 of study after recruitment in both Cochlear Implant Alone and Cochlear Implant and Hearing Aid Together conditions

  • Unaided Soundfield Audiometry

    Tested at one time point at day 1 of study after recruitment

  • BKB sentences speech test

    Tested at one time point at day 1 of study after recruitment in both Cochlear Implant Alone and Cochlear Implant and Hearing Aid Together conditions

Study Population

Patients at St. Thomas' Hearing Implant Centre

You may qualify if:

  • Adult
  • Has unilateral Cochlear Implant
  • Consistent use of Hearing Aid
  • Obtains some benefit in speech discrimination from hearing aid (\> 20% AB words)
  • Post-lingually deafened
  • Fluent English

You may not qualify if:

  • Longstanding significant asymmetry (\> 20 dB HL 4 frequency average) in hearing where the unimplanted ear is the worse ear
  • Inconsistent Hearing Aid use
  • Significant conductive hearing loss (\> 20 dB HL 4 frequency average)
  • Using Electro-Acoustic stimulation Cochlear Implant
  • Aetiology of hearing loss likely associated with auditory neuropathy
  • Significantly abnormal appearance of cochlea or cochlear nerve
