Effect of increased IIDR in the nucleus freedom cochlear implant systemLaura K Holden
Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO 63110, USA
J Am Acad Audiol 18:777-93. 2007..Ceiling effects may have contributed to non-significant findings for sentences in quiet (50 dB SPL). The Freedom's increased IIDR allows better perception of soft speech and speech in noise...

Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO 63110, USA
J Assoc Res Otolaryngol 3:332-50. 2002..Because most patients' scores increased with SPEAK use, it is hypothesized that they accommodated to the shift in frequency of incoming sound to a higher pitch percept with the implant than would normally be perceived acoustically...
