Long-Term Behavioral and Neurophysiological Outcomes Following Cochlear Reimplantation in Children: An EEG Study With Predictive Factor Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Cochlear reimplantation is becoming more common; however, some patients do not achieve the expected outcomes. There is limited evidence regarding cochlear reimplantation-related developmental delays. This study aimed to (1) systematically compare the performance of children with cochlear reimplantation to those with primary cochlear implants using behavioral and EEG measures and (2) identify the influencing factors.

Design

This cross-sectional study was conducted at 2 tertiary medical centers specializing in audiology and cochlear implantation from April 2023 to February 2024. The study included 51 children with cochlear reimplantation and 51 with primary cochlear implants. Participants were matched based on age, sex, the unaided pure-tone average, and interventio
