Abstract

Objectives: Speech recognition tests are used to explain the accuracy of patient auditory reception and processing of speech material. There will be a problem when testing children because their speech recognition scores are affected by their level of language development and their auditory capabilities. This prospective study was designed to compare word recognition test scores -Arabic version- before and after phoniatric evaluation and application of Arabic articulation test in children using cochlear implant aiming at evaluating effect of articulation disorders on interpretation of word recognition scores. Methods: Forty-six children enrolled in Med El cochlear implant program divided into 4 groups according to language assessment. Aided word recognition test was performed before and after application of Arabic articulation test that detects speech and articulation errors including substitution, phonological processes, right words and wrong words. Results: Scores of word recognition test of study groups were improved after phoniatric evaluation and application of articulation test and reflected the importance of duration of language rehabilitation and use of cochlear implant. Conclusion: Speech production errors could contaminate the results of open-set speech perception tests and the application of standardized articulation test aids in real estimation of word recognition in children with cochlear implant.

发音障碍对人工耳蜗听障儿童单词识别评分的影响

目的:利用语音识别测试来解释患者听觉接收和语音材料加工的准确性。在测试孩子的时候会有一个问题，因为他们的语音识别分数会受到他们的语言发展水平和听觉能力的影响。本前瞻性研究旨在比较使用人工耳蜗儿童语音评估和阿拉伯语发音测试前后的单词识别测试分数(阿拉伯语版本)，以评估发音障碍对单词识别分数解释的影响。方法:46例耳蜗植入儿童按语言水平分为4组。在使用阿拉伯语发音测试前后分别进行辅助单词识别测试，检测语音和发音错误，包括替换、语音过程、正确单词和错误单词。结果:语音评价和发音测试应用后，各研究组单词识别测试得分均有提高，反映语言康复时间和人工耳蜗使用的重要性。结论:语音产生错误可能会影响开放集语音感知测试的结果，标准化发音测试辅助工具在人工耳蜗儿童单词识别的真实评估中的应用。
