Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To assess the performance of the new fine structure processing strategy(FS4) compared to the previous generation coding strategy HDCIS.
METHOD:Twelve post-lingual hearing-impaired cochlear implant users were included. FS4 and HDCIS were compared in music pitch perception and speech perception test.
RESULT:Acute comparison between FS4 and HDCIS showed that FS4 performed as well as HDCIS in speech perception tests, and outperformed HDCIS in music pitch perception.
CONCLUSION:Results indicate that FS4 performs better than HDCIS in music perception. Differences between the two strategies were not significant for speech test.
