Benefits Afforded by Precurved Electrode Arrays: Speech and Auditory Perception for Adult Cochlear Implant Recipients

Presented by Rene Gifford, PhD, CCC-A, Director of the Cochlear Implant Program Professor in the Department of Hearing and Speech Sciences at Vanderbilt University Medical Center

Thursday, January 9, 2020 @ 12:00pm – 1:00pm EST

This course is offered for continuing education in partnership with AudiologyOnline. Please visit www.AudiologyOnline.com for details regarding CEUs offered.

After attending this course you’ll be able to:

• Describe expected CI outcomes by a large clinical population without knowledge of electrode location and device wear time and compare this broad range of variability to what we could expect with more knowledge of individualized variables
• Understand differences between classic literature and newer studies providing evidence for greater channel specificity in modern-day CI recipients with precurved electrode arrays localized in scala tympani
• Characterize the potential beneficial effects of a well-placed precurved electrode array on upper stimulation levels, spectral resolution and speech recognition in quiet and noise
