Directionality in the interpretation of clinical auditory brain stem response measures.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Early-deafened, late-implanted adolescents and adults constitute a unique group of cochlear implant (CI) users, showing a large variability in outcomes. The current systematic review aimed to determine which preimplantation factors are relevant in predicting postoperative outcomes in this patient group. DES...
