Abstract

The cochlear implant (CI) is a true medical miracle, providing hearing to the deaf. Certainly, those who developed the implant technology deserve credit for the success of the CI, as do the surgeons who implant the device and the audiologists who program the processors. However, the success of the CI would not be possible without the plasticity of the human brain. In this sense, CI patients have been their own “miracle workers,” because they have learned to make sense of the crude electrical signals provided by the implant device. When the CI was first introduced, many thought that the device would provide only limited benefit. Clearly they were wrong, because many CI users are capable of auditory-only speech perception (e.g., telephone conversation), greatly exceeding initial expectations.
