Abstract

We report a case in which we quantified the maturation of the central auditory pathway in children with hearing loss and associated disabilities; the audiological intervention was performed using the BAHA softband. The hearing aid was applied according to the international clinical protocols. The presented case reveals the importance of using the P1 CAEP biomarker in clinical practice along with a neuropsychological evaluation to assess the maturation of the central auditory pathways and to objectively quantify the results of auditory rehabilitation in children with hearing loss and associated disabilities.
