1The HEARing CRC, Carlton, Victoria, Australia; 2Cochlear Limited, East Melbourne, Victoria, Australia; 3The University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria, Australia; 4Bionics Institute, East Melbourne, Victoria, Australia; and 5Macquarie University, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

Objectives: The first objective was to examine factors that could be predictive of postoperative unilateral (cochlear implant alone) speech recognition ability in a group of subjects with greater degrees of preoperative acoustic hearing than has been previously examined.
