Objectives: The cochlear implant is a hearing aid as hair cell prosthesis, that is connected to a programmable sound processor. The fitting of audio processors is essential for hearing sounds, speech understanding or maybe listening music. To learn fitting cochlear implant devices, necessary to know the variables of sound processors programming and how the rehabilitation is going. Materials and methods: In this research two groups of patient were collected to statistically analysing. The selection based on development of speech; in first group was adults as postlingual recipients, and the other prelingual group for children. The main psychophysical parameters were registered, and electrical evoked comfort level was analysed. Results: Three sessions separation were discernible from cochlear implant fitting tests; in beginning session the comfort level increased to stabilize at the highest level, as adaptation phase. In next long stabilized period the comfort level was not changing or minimal. In last regeneration phase, the comfort values decreased and fixed. The changing of phases generally really similar in same groups, but between two groups were big differences of value levels. Conclusion: The cochlear implant is the most effective treatment method among the deaf patients. The rehabilitation is very long time for all recipients and necessary to estimate the outcome of treatment. The comfort levels at Pre- and postlingual groups were comparable, so there was permitted to conclude the fitting of adult with estimation of children fitting. The average sessions of comfort level determination could be help for right using or developing of fitting software. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
