  • Beschreibung: <jats:p>Auditory performance of cochlear implant (CI) children was assessed with the Listening Progress Profile (LiP) and the Monosyllabic-Trochee-Polysyllabic-Word Test (MTP) following the EARS protocol. Additionally, the ‘initial drop’ phenomenon, a recently reported decrease of auditory performance occurring immediately after first fitting, was investigated. Patients were 140 prelingually deafened children from various clinics and centers worldwide implanted with a MEDEL COMBI 40/40+. Analysis of LiP data showed a significant increase after 1 month of CI use compared to preoperative scores (p &lt; 0.01). No initial decrease was observed with this test. Analysis of MTP data revealed a significant improvement of word recognition after 6 months (p &lt; 0.01), with a significant temporary decrease after initial fitting (p &lt; 0.01). With both tests, children’s auditory skills improved up to 2 years. Amount of improvement was negatively correlated with age at implantation.</jats:p>
