摘要Objective: To study the effect of age at implantation and duration of implant use on the performance of spoken word recognition of paediatric cochlear implantees in a tonal language setting over a period of 5 years. Study design: Sixty-four children, implanted at age from 1:0 1 to 14:09, were divided into three age groups. They were tested on the open-set word recognition ability at seven time intervals from pre-operation to 5 years post-surgery. Results: The factor of implant experience was significant in children's spoken word recognition across the three age groups (P < 0.01). Children implanted below the age of three caught up with the performance of the older children at 1http://aims.cuhk.edu.hk/converis/portal/Publication/2 months following implantation. Conclusion: Continuous improvement in spoken word recognition performance was noted in all children irrespective of their age at implantation. Children implanted below the age of three improved at a slower rate before I full year of implant use. By http://aims.cuhk.edu.hk/converis/portal/Publication/2 years of implant use, the performance of the young children had bypassed the older children and Sustained the highest scores throughout to 5 years post-operation.
