Audiometry results in adult cochlear implant patients according to the electrode array.

Objective: To assess audiological outcome in adult (>18years) cochlear implant (CI) users with a straight (SA) or perimodiolar electrode array (PMA).

Material And Methods: Between 2017 and 2021, medical records of patients in 2 French centers who received a Cochlear™ SA (CI522/CI622) or PMA (CI532/CI632) CI were retrospectively analyzed according to the STROBE guidelines. Air-conduction pure-tone audiometry and disyllabic speech audiometry were recorded over a minimum 3-year follow-up.
