Abstract
We tested six patients with single channel cochlear implants on several tests from the Minimal Auditory Capabilities battery and the Iowa Cochlear Implant Tests. All patients were able to discriminate some everyday sounds and to identify the number of syllables in the words presented. Five patients were able to identify speaker sex reliably. Surprisingly, some patients had difficulty discriminating between a modulated noise and a voice or between a question and a statement or identifying the accented word in a sentence. On several audiovisual tests, an improvement was observed for the sound plus vision condition compared to the vision only condition. This was particularly true for sentence tests, but was not uniform across patients or across tests.
