The audioprocessor with the implemented FIR filter-67 coefficients paradigm algorithms, and the fitting system were shown to be adequate for clinical use. Effectiveness parameters were: pure tone average gains 20-33.3 dB; gap closure 25.5-31.8 dB; speech reception thresholds improvement 15-20 dB. Required gain: 5-40 dB. Subjectively, patients considered the results very satisfactory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
