Table 2.
Number of patients, gender distribution, average age, and time since implantation (SDs in brackets) in one CI, two CI (CI+CI), and CI and hearing aid (CI+HA) groups, pre- and post-implantation, completing SSQ/HHIE, speech test (CNC) and localization [Loc] test. Braces in the 3rd and 4th columns show numbers in CI+CI and CI+HA groups completing HHIE. Square brackets in the last two columns show numbers and proportions of females completing Loc test.
