| Description | Journal: Acta Oto-Laryngologica Our cochlear implant patients differentiate the number of syllables in connected discourse and identify stress patterns. The recognition of these auditory cues greatly simplifies speech reading. The patient's ability to hear his own voice results in clearer articulation and better voice quality. Special auditory tests were developed to assess syllabic recognition in different words, the identification of stress pattems in simple sentences, and the identification, by audiologists, of complex words read by the implanted patients. The use of these audiological tests to select patients for cochlear implants, and to compare pre- and post-implant performance, is discussed. |
