ItemSpeech perception benefits for children using the Speak speech processing strategy in quiet and noise [Abstract]Whitford, L.A. ; Dowell, R.C. ; Brown, C. ; Gibson, W.P.R. ; Clark, Graeme M. ; Cowan, R. S. C. ; Galvin, K. L. ; Barker, E. J. ; Sarant, J. Z. ; Shaw, S. ; Everingham, C. ( 1995)The Speak speech processing strategy, based on the Spectral Maxima Speech Processor (SMSP) developed at the University of Melbourne, has now been implemented in the Spectra 22 speech processor developed by Cochlear Pty Limited, and clinical trials of both patients changing from the previous Multipeak strategy to Speak and patients starting up with Speak have been conducted. Results in adult patients changing to Speak have shown significant improvements in speech perception in quiet and particularly in background noise as compared with Multipeak.

ItemSpeech perception results for children changing from multipeak to SPEAK speech processing strategy [Abstract]Sarant, J.Z. ; DelDot, J. ; Dettman, S. ; Hollow, R. ; Skok, M. ; Seligman, P.M. ; Dowell, R.C. ; Gibson, W.P.R. ; Clark, Graeme M. ; Cowan, R. S. C. ; Pyman, B. ; Galvin, K. L. ; Shaw, S. ; Barker, E. J. ; Brown, C. ( 1996)In mid-1994, a new speech processing strategy termed SPEAK was introduced for the Nucleus Spectra-22 cochlear prostheses. To compare benefits in implanted children changing to the SPEAK strategy, speech perception in a group of twelve children from Melbourne and Sydney was evaluated. The children were assessed in quiet and in background noise.
