Journal ArticleDOI

Outcomes of early- and late-identified children at 3 years of age: findings from a prospective population-based study.

TL;DR: Whereas the effect of age of hearing aid fitting on child outcomes was weak, a younger age at cochlear implant switch-on was significantly associated with better outcomes for children with cochLear implants at 3 years of age.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factors influencing speech perception in noise for 5-year-old children using hearing aids or cochlear implants.

TL;DR: Speech perception in children with hearing loss can be enhanced by improving their language abilities, and early age at cochlear implantation was also associated with better outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Language and speech perception of young children with bimodal fitting or bilateral cochlear implants

TL;DR: It was found that language scores for children with bilateral implants were higher than those with bimodal fitting or those with unilateral implants, but neither reached significance level.
Journal ArticleDOI

A randomized controlled comparison of NAL and DSL prescriptions for young children: hearing-aid characteristics and performance outcomes at three years of age.

TL;DR: There was no significant association between choice of hearing-aid prescription and variance in children's outcomes at three years of age and in contrast, additional disability, maternal educational level, and early functional performance were significant predictive factors of children’s outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparison of NAL and DSL prescriptive methods for paediatric hearing-aid fitting: predicted speech intelligibility and loudness.

TL;DR: The choice of prescription has minimal effects on speech intelligibility predictions but marked effects on loudness predictions, according to hearing aids fitted according to NAL-NL1, DSL v4.1, or DSL m[i/o] prescriptions.
