Protocol summary

Study aim
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of auditory rehabilitation based on pitch differentiation on speech perception in noise in hearing impaired children 6 to 10 years
Design
clinical trial without control group with convenience sampling on 18 hearing impaired children
Settings and conduct
The site of evaluation and rehabilitation is in the educational and rehabilitation center for children with hearing disorders. In this method, children with moderate to severe hearing loss evaluate before intervention with vowel consonant in noise test, sentence in noise test, pitch pattern sequence, harmonic evaluation and object-related negative wave. At the end of the intervention, the assessments were repeated and compared with before intervention. Hearing impaired children were examined as an convenience
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
age range 6 to 10 years with moderate to severe hearing loss, no auditory neuropathy, normal middle ear, lack of developmental, cognitive and behavioral problems, normal IQ, Persian language with single language Persian language parents, right hand superiority, no history of head trauma, epilepsy and seizures and use of nervous system drug
Intervention groups
. The intervention in this study is pitch training. In this type of rehabilitation, a 100 Hz complex stimulus included, frequency of 100 Hz and 10 harmonics present. Then, in different presents , each time one of the harmonics mistune and the person hears two separate sounds that compare and differentiate with the first stimulus. In the second stage, the 200Hz stimulus and in the third stage, the 300Hz stimulus present similar to 100 Hz frequency.
Main outcome variables
Consonant Vowel in noise, Sentence in noise, Pitch pattern test, Harmonic discrimination, Object Related Negativity

Description
Intervention group: 14 sessions of harmonic(pitch) discrimination rehabilitation. intervention will be performed for hearing impaired children. Harmonic changes in each session are reduced according to the individual's ability. Also, the harmonic evaluation, pitch pattern sequence , vowel consonant in noise, sentence in noise and late cortical responses and object related negative wave before and after rehabilitation are evaluated and compared. Necessary equipment is speech assessment and rehabilitation software in noise and electroencephalography device.
