Audiometric instruments and techniques adopted to measure tactual cueing characteristics of the Radioear B70A and the Siemens Fonator electromechanical vibrators were used by young adults. The Siemens Phonator demonstrated a wider suprathreshold operating range than did the Radioear B70A. (Author/CL)

This paper describes changes in speech perception performance of deaf children using cochlear implants, tactile aids, or conventional hearing aids over a three-year period. Eleven of the 13 children with cochlear implants were able to identify words on the basis of auditory consonant cues. Significant lipreading enhancement was also achieved with…
