Title The effect of binaural beamforming technology on speech intelligibility in bimodal cochlear implant recipients
520 3# - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Although the benefit of bimodal listening in cochlear implant<br/>users has been agreed on, speech comprehension remains a<br/>challenge in acoustically complex real-life environments due<br/>to reverberation and disturbing background noises. One way<br/>to additionally improve bimodal auditory performance is the<br/>use of directional microphones. The objective of this study<br/>was to investigate the effect of a binaural beamformer for bimodal<br/>cochlear implant (CI) users. This prospective study<br/>measured speech reception thresholds (SRT) in noise in a repeated-<br/>measures design that varied in listening modality for<br/>static and dynamic listening conditions. A significant improvement<br/>in SRT of 4.7 dB was found with the binaural<br/>beamformer switched on in the bimodal static listening condition.<br/>No significant improvement was found in the dynamic<br/>listening condition. We conclude that there is a clear additional<br/>advantage of the binaural beamformer in bimodal CI<br/>users for predictable/static listening conditions with frontal<br/>target speech and spatially separated noise sources.
