Abstract

To assess the auditory performance of young children using a simple and valid test, the listening progress profile (LiP) after cochlear implantation. In this prospective longitudinal study 21 children with age range from 3 years 4 months to 10 years were included. The listening progress profile test was administered pre- and post-implantation to assess auditory performance. The test has been applied at 6, 12, 24, and 36 month intervals. It has been found that the test is sensitive in monitoring improvement in auditory performance at these intervals. It has been found that the listening progress profile (LiP) is valid to assess the changes in auditory performance of young children post-implantation.
