Congenital profound sensorineural hearing loss is known to cause severe and often irreversible developmental problems, including language development. Particularly in the case of late detection (and thus late intervention), the common educational setting for these children is the school for the deaf. For many years, intervention for profound sensorineural hearing loss consisted of fitting of conventional hearing aids. However, hearing aids can only partially correct the deficient cochlear functions. As a result, in many cases, the severe consequences of congenital deafness could not be prevented. The development of cochlear implants (CI's) caused dramatic changes in this situation. A CI is an implantable electronic device, which aims at replacing the cochlear function by stimulating the auditory nerves directly through an electrode inserted into the cochlea. With improving technology and results, the field of indications broadened gradually with regard to type of deafness and age at implantation.

520 $a Congenital profound sensorineural hearing loss is known to cause severe and often irreversible developmental problems, including language development. Particularly in the case of late detection (and thus late intervention), the common educational setting for these children is the school for the deaf. For many years, intervention for profound sensorineural hearing loss consisted of fitting of conventional hearing aids. However, hearing aids can only partially correct the deficient cochlear functions. As a result, in many cases, the severe consequences of congenital deafness could not be prevented. The development of cochlear implants (CI's) caused dramatic changes in this situation. A CI is an implantable electronic device, which aims at replacing the cochlear function by stimulating the auditory nerves directly through an electrode inserted into the cochlea. With improving technology and results, the field of indications broadened gradually with regard to type of deafness and age at implantation.
520 $a Significant improvements in language development could be found in children implanted after the age of two years. However, these children still demonstrated important language delays in comparison to hearing peers. When bearing in mind the critical time window for language development in a child, even greater and faster improvements could be expected in the case of implantation before age two or even one. The practice of very early cochlear implantation in Antwerp (Belgium) gave us a unique opportunity to investigate speech and language development in a group of profoundly hearing-impaired children who received an implant between 5 and 20 months of age.
520 $a A crucial milestone in speech development is the onset of prelexical babbling. Our study showed that all CI children reached this stage (in contrast to deaf children), and that the qualitative babbling characteristics of the CI children were very similar to those of hearing children. The CI group tended to develop language slower than hearing children, but substantial interindividual differences were apparent, which could be explained by age at implantation: CI children implanted in their first year of life were able to reach age-appropriate language levels by 4 years of age, and subsequently were able to be integrated in the mainstream school system.
