The study was conducted at a single class A tertiary hospital in China. Participants with congenital severe to complete hearing loss, aged 1 to 18 years, who received GT or CI were enrolled. They were matched on duration of deafness, hearing thresholds, and speech ability at the presurgical baseline. Of 1568 participants screened, 72 participants enrolled.
