07/01/2012 - "(1) To determine the long-term outcomes of cochlear implantation in children implanted younger than 6 months and (2) to evaluate auditory-based performance in very young children compared with older children, all with profound sensorineural bilateral hearing loss. "

07/01/2008 - "There were two main objectives for this study: (1) to estimate the number of children between the ages of 12 months and 6 years of age with severe to profound bilateral hearing loss who could benefit from a cochlear implant and (2) to determine if the number of children projected to be candidates received this medical care. "
11/01/2007 - "The present study 1) examined speech recognition at three intensity levels and in noise for adults with bilateral hearing loss who wore amplification and were referred for cochlear implant evaluation but did not meet current audiological criteria, and 2) compared their performance to cochlear implant recipients using current implant technology.
