Chronological changes of CI cases and CI centers in Japan (120 million population)
Binaural hearing with CI/HA or CI/CI 1) Sound direction identification 2) Speech perception in quiet 3) Speech perception in noise a) Noise from front b) Noise from right and left
Bilateral cochlear implant subjects • ITD; 400 μsec-1msec • ILD; 1 dB • can detect the difference in 10-25º. Sound direction identification with bilateral ears • Mechanism of sound source detection • Inter-aural time difference (ITD) • Inter-aural level difference (ILD) • Normally hearing subjects • ITD; 10 μsec • ILD; 0.5 -1 dB • can detect the difference in 2º

Summary for sound direction identification study Binaural hearing with CI/HA had advantages for sound direction identification. • Benefits: • Aware for the direction • of alarm sign. • Can identify the speaker while talking with many people.
N S CI CI HA Advantages of binaural hearing 1) Sound source detection 2) Better speech perception especially in noisy circumstances • Mechanisms of better hearing with two ears • Summation effect • Binaural unmasking effect (binaural squelch effect) • Head shadow effect (advantage)
Binaural hearing with CI/HA or CI/CI 2) Speech perception in quiet - summation effect – • Speech perception score (%) • Speech reception threshold (SRT in dB)

S HA CI Sound from front Summary for speech perception in quiet- Summation effect - Both speech perception score (%) and reception threshold (SRT) were better in listening with two ears than listening with CI alone condition. If SRT is better in 2dB, it corresponds to 10 15% better speech perception.
