Ear dominance for nonsense-syllable recognition ability in sensorineural hearing-impaired children: monaural versus binaural amplification.
The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether an auditory-deprivation/dominant-ear effect associated with nonalternating monaural amplification is present in children. Subjects were 35 children with bilateral symmetric, moderately severe to profound, sensorineural hearing impairment. Seventeen were fitted with nonalternating monaural amplification and 18 were fitted with binaural o...
متن کاملBinaural Intelligibility level Differences in Normal and Hearing-Impaired Individuals
Introduction Release from masking, or the masking level difference (MLD), is a phenomenon in which the binaural auditory system can take advantage of interaural phase differences to improve the detection of signals in a background of noise. The MLDphenomenon can be observed for both tonal and speech signals at or near threshold levels. Similarly, intelligibility of speech presented at suprathre...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Ear Disease in Sensorineural Hearing Impaired Children Below 18 Years-Old in Deaf Welfare Clinic of Molavi Rehabilitation Center
Objectives: Hearing impairment in children is considered as an important public health problem. Auditory function in these children is poor and depends on their hearing aids efficacy and also their ears’ status. Hearing aids are very expensive and ear disease deteriorates its performance. Therefore detecting the ear disease and offering proper treatment is necessary. The aim of this study is to...
متن کاملProblems of middle ear and hearing in cleft children
The hearing loss in a cleft patient is a well known complication, but generally gets ignored. These children continue to have recurrent otitis media with effusion that affects the hearing abilities. Unfortunatley the middle ear function may not improve with palatoplasty.Cleft palate teams need to follow up all such children beginning at birth and going into adulthood, decades after a 'successfu...
متن کاملBinaural pitch perception in hearing-impaired listeners
When two white noises differing only in phase in a particular frequency range are presented simultaneously each to one of our ears, a pitch sensation may be perceived inside the head. This phenomenon, called ’binaural pitch’ or ’dichotic pitch’, can be produced by frequency-dependent interaural phasedifference patterns. The evaluation of these interaural phase differences depends on the functio...
