✦ Synopsis

Cochlear implants and conventional hearing aids use different stimulating signals.

The beneficial effect of contralateral hearing aids in cochlear implantees, in terms of added speech perception, is still a matter of debate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible enhancement in speech perception in unilateral cochlear implantees who wear a conventional hearing aid in the non-implanted ear. Speech perception was evaluated after the patients had achieved a stable cochlear implant map and were comfortable with their binaural bimodal hearing.
