Abstract

The aim of aural rehabilitation through cochlear implant is to develop or regain hearing perception in patients suffering severe to profound hearing loss. This method of rehabilitation is used in the ENT Department of Centro Hospitalar de Coimbra, E.P.E. since 1992. Since then, the cochlear implant team has been committed to the improvement and development of assessment and intervention methodologies in this population, before and after the cochlear implant surgery.
