Effects of pre-existing hearing loss and gender on proposed ANSI S12.13 outcomes for characterizing hearing conservation program effectiveness: preliminary investigation.

abstract：:The purpose of this study was to develop a test to assess the ability of persons with cochlear implants (CIs) to interpret musical signals. Up to this time, the main direction in outcomes studies of cochlear implantation has been in relation to speech recognition abilities. With improvement in CI hardware and processi...
