Randomized clinical trial evaluates hearing performance in newly implanted cochlear implant users, suggesting improved sound recognition.
In newly implanted cochlear implant users, ABF improved environmental sound recognition, suggesting improved perceived sound naturalness in the first weeks after implantation. This benefit did not extend to speech recognition in quiet and remains inconclusive in noise due to floor effect.
