Acoustic, Aerodynamic, and Perceptual Analyses of the Voice of Cochlear-Implanted Children

Cochlear implants may improve the majority of acoustic parameters of the voice better than HA for deaf children. Glottal and laryngeal efficiencies were significantly increased with the chronological age and the time of wearing an implant. Results suggest that voices of implanted children in our study do not reveal vocal characteristics traditionally used to determine the dysphonic voice.
