Variables Affecting Cochlear Implant Performance After Loss of Residual Hearing

OBJECTIVE: Determine variables that influence post-activation performance for cochlear implant (CI) recipients who lost low-frequency acoustic hearing.
METHODS: A retrospective review evaluated CNC word recognition for adults with normal to moderately severe low-frequency hearing (preoperative unaided thresholds of ≤70 dB HL at 250 Hz) who were implanted between 2012 and 2021 at a tertiary academic center, lost functional acoustic hearing, and were fit with a CI-alone device. Performance scores were queried from the 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24-month post-activation visits. A linear mixed model evaluated the effects of age at implantation, array length (long vs. mid/short), and preoperative low-frequency hearing (normal to mild, moderate, and moderately severe) on speech recognition with a CI alone.
RESULTS: 113 patients met the inclusion criteria. There was a significant main effect of interval (p < 0.001), indicating improved word recognition post-activation despite loss of residual hearing. There were significant main effects of age (p = 0.029) and array length (p = 0.038), with no effect of preoperative low-frequency hearing (p = 0.171). There was a significant 2-way interaction between age and array length (p = 0.018), indicating that older adults with mid/short arrays performed more poorly than younger adults with long lateral wall arrays when functional acoustic hearing was lost.
CONCLUSION: CI recipients with preoperative functional low-frequency hearing experience a significant improvement in speech recognition with a CI alone as compared to preoperative performance-despite the loss of low-frequency hearing. Age and electrode array length may play a role in post-activation performance. These data have implications for the preoperative counseling and device selection for hearing preservation candidates.
