  1. 1. Children with Cochlear Implants : Cognition and Reading Ability

    Författare :Malin Wass; Björn Lyxell; Birgitta Sahlén; Birgitta Larsby; Anita McAllister; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Cochlear implants; children; working memory; phonological skills; lexical access; reading ability; Cochleaimplantat; barn; arbetsminne; fonologiska färdigheter; lexikal aktivering; läsförmåga.; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The present thesis investigated cognitive ability in children with severe to profound hearing impairment who have received cochlear implants (CIs). The auditory stimulation from a cochlear implant early in life influences most cognitive functions as a consequence of the plasticity of the brain in the young child. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Strategies in Cochlear Nerve Regeneration, Guidance and Protection : Prospects for Future Cochlear Implants

    Författare :Fredrik Edin; Helge Rask-Andersen; Peetra Magnusson; Maoli Duan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Human vestibular nerve; Scarpa s ganglion; Stem cells; Nanoparticles; Nanocrystalline diamond; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; Oto-rhino-laryngologi; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Today, it is possible to restore hearing in congenitally deaf children and severely hearing-impaired adults through cochlear implants (CIs). A CI consists of an external sound processor that provides acoustically induced signals to an internal receiver. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Electrically evoked compound action potentials as a tool for programming cochlear implants in children

    Författare :Andreas Björsne; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cochlear implants; ECAP; Impedance; T-levels; C-levels;

    Sammanfattning : Cochlear implants are generally the best treatment for young children with a profound hearing loss (or worse) when ordinary hearing aids cannot provide enough auditory stimulation. For these youngest recipients, there must be a valid rationale for deciding the level of stimulation. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Reasons for Language : Language and Analogical Reasoning Ability in Children with Cochlear Implants and Children with Typical Hearing

    Författare :Michaela Socher; Björn Lyxell; Malin Wass; Rachel J. Ellis; Åsa Wengelin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; cochlear implants; analogical reasoning; cognitive training; expressive language; pragmatic language ability;

    Sammanfattning : The usage-based model of language acquisition assumes that language is learned by its usage. General cognitive processes, especially analogical reasoning ability, are assumed to lead to the understanding of words and grammatical structures. LÄS MER
