Riassunto:

Now that the use of cochlear implants has become firmly established in the rehabilitation process, it is important for students, audiologists and speech-language pathologists to have a solid understanding of the underlying principles of cochlear implants. This understanding is critical if clinicians want to provide their clients with the best possible rehabilitation services. Dr. Tyler has assembled experts to present a comprehensive picture of what is known about profoundly deaf individuals, neurophysiology of the hearing mechanism, speech perception and production, recommendations for aural-rehabilitation programmes utilizing the latest technology and the electrophysiological and psychophysical bases of the auditory system. The focus is not on specific cochlear implants, but on the principles that affect the usefulness of any implant device and must be factored into an effective rehabilitation plan.
