Introduction A correlation between pre- and postoperative speech understanding after cochlear implantation has already been demonstrated. In the work of Hoppe et al. a predictor for the determination of postoperative Freiburg monosyllabic score (FBE) 6 months after initial fitting (EA) was established. The age, maximum score for phonemically balanced words (EVmax) and the preoperative FBE at 65 dB with hearing aid (HG) are required. 1 In this paper, the FBE is calculated using the predictor and compared with the data.
Andreae et al. (2024) studied this question.
