Introduction: In individuals with cochlear implants (CI), continuous wear of the hearing devices is crucial for maintaining auditory input and supporting auditory development. It is recommended that cochlear implant processors be used throughout waking hours. Modern cochlear implant systems provide clinicians with data on the usage of sound processors by CI users through a process known as "data logging." This data logging enables the automatic and objective measurement of CI usage based on average daily usage hours. Previous studies examining data records of patients with CIs have revealed si ...Daha fazlası
