Singing may improve hearing for children with cochlear implants


A study has assessed how children with cochlear implants who sing informally develop in their perception of speech in noise compared to those with cochlear implants who don´t.

The study studied the effects of age and changes over a 14–17 month period in the speech in noise performance of children with cochlear implants. The children with cochlear implants were compared to a group of normal hearing children.

Compared to the normal hearing group, the entire cochlear implant group was less tolerant of noise in speech perception but both groups improved similarly. However, the singing group among children with cochlear implants showed better speech in noise perception than the non-singing cochlear implant group.
