Effects of family environment features on cochlear-implanted children

ConclusionsThe relationship between the family and the auditory-verbal development potential of the cochlear-implanted child is obvious. However, further studies are needed to establish correlations between the characteristics of the family environment and the level of auditory-verbal and psycho-cognitive development of the cochlear-implanted child so we can act on the family environment through education or therapy, to get maximum benefit with these children.
