This article highlights variables that affect cochlear implant performance, emerging factors warranting consideration, and variables shown not to affect performance. Research on the outcomes following cochlear implantation has identified a wide spectrum of variables known to affect pos0timplantation performance. These variables relate to the device itself as well as individual patient characteristics. Factors believed to affect spiral ganglion cell survival and function have been shown to influence postoperative performance. Binaural hearing affects performance. Social and educational factors also affect postoperative performance. Novel variables capable of affecting performance continue to emerge with increased understanding of auditory pathway development and neural plasticity.
本文重点介绍了影响人工耳蜗性能的变量、值得考虑的新出现因素以及已证明不影响性能的变量。对人工耳蜗植入术后结果的研究已经确定了一系列已知会影响植入后性能的变量。这些变量与设备本身以及患者个体特征有关。据信影响螺旋神经节细胞存活和功能的因素已被证明会影响术后性能。双耳听力会影响性能。社会和教育因素也会影响术后性能。随着对听觉通路发育和神经可塑性的理解不断加深，能够影响性能的新变量也在不断出现。
