Abstract

Auditory brainstem implantation (ABI) is a recent technique in children's hearing restoration. Up till now the focus in the literature has mainly been the perceptual outcomes after implantation, whereas the effect of ABI on spoken language is still an almost unexplored area of research. This study presents a one-year follow-up of the volubility of two children with ABI. The volubility of signed and oral productions is investigated and oral productions are examined in more detail. Results show clear developmental trends in both children, indicating a beneficial effect of ABI on spoken language development.
