Clinical trials for the Nucleus multichannel cochlear implant in children 2 through 9 years of age have been ongoing for approximately 1 year. We describe three children who have used the device for at least 8 months. Based on these three cases, we discuss some factors that might affect the outcome of the Nucleus implant in young children: age at implantation, age at onset of deafness, and duration of profound deafness before implantation. Surgical and rehabilitation issues, including educational settings, are reviewed.

Behavioral Methods

Several studies have empirically examined the feasibility and outcomes of remote programming for adults with cochlear implants. Results indicate that equivalent programming levels can be obtained in both the remote and in-person conditions, suggesting that distance technology is a viable alternative to traditional in-person programming methods. Young children, however, require different audiological testing methods to obtain the behavioral responses necessary for speech-processor programming. No studies have empirically evaluated the use of remote programming with the behavioral methods specific to testing young children. Further, young children present additional challenges to behavioral testing (e.g., ability to condition or cooperate) that can lead to the need for additional visits beyond those required for regular programming. This paper describes the potential benefits of remote programming over those achieved for adults, and describes the study design and preliminary results from our current study aimed at validating the use of remote processor programming for young children with cochlear implants (CIs).

Children With Hearing Loss

Consistent, full-time use of a well programmed cochlear implant (CI) is key for auditory and spoken language development. Young children with hearing loss often lack the requisite language skills to alert parents and clinicians when the CI needs to be re-programmed. The article within describes red flags used to indicate the levels of the device need to be reset.
