Cochlear implants offer substantial benefit for children and adults with severe to profound hearing loss. However, for recipients to realize their full potential with the device, it must be carefully programmed. Programming Cochlear Implants, a volume in the Core Clinical Concepts in Audiology Series, offers practical guidance for clinicians who program or plan to program cochlear implants, introducing the basics of cochlear implant programming and continuing through advanced programming techniques. Manufacturer-specific information is provided, and case studies are presented to illustrate cochlear implant programming fundamentals and strategies. Specific topics covered include: basics of cochlear implant terminology and programming, clinical protocols for cochlear implant management, programming considerations for bilateral cochlear implant recipients, troubleshooting during the programming process, device-specific programming techniques, basic use of objective measures to set cochlear implant programs, use of FM and assistive listening devices with cochlear implants, and management of the difficult-to-program recipient.
This book serves as a practical guide for clinicians who are providing services to cochlear implant users and also as a teaching tool for graduate-level students. Programming Cochlear Implants: Interview with Jace Wolfe, PhD Douglas L. Beck, AuD, speaks with Dr. Wolfe about his co-authored book, Programming Cochlear Implants, FM and Bluetooth, binaural hearing, bilateral cochlear implants, adult and pediatric criteria, and more.
Jace Wolfe, PhD Jace Wolfe, Ph.D., is the Director of Audiology at the Hearts for Hearing Foundation. He also is an adjunct Assistant Professor in the Audiology Department at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. Erin Schafer, PhD Erin C. Schafer, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences at the University of North Texas, where she has held an academic appointment since August 2005. She teaches graduate courses in the areas of aural rehabilitation, pediatric habilitation, diagnostic audiology, and research methods, and she serves as an Educational Audiology consultant for local school districts.
