Abstract

Adjustment of a speech processor of the cochlear implant is the first procedure in rehabilitation of patients after cochlear implantation. Influence of setting understated and overstated threshold levels of current perception on processing of a speech signal was studied. The results of the study show that only precise estimation of current perception threshold and comfortable loudness allow transmitting maximal acoustic information for each patient.
