Methods: Forty-eight adolescents with hearing loss participated in the study and were divided into SG (unilateral CI and HA) and CG (bilateral HA). The evaluation of the postural stability was performed with a force plate during two repeating testing trials with EO\/EC. Results: SG was characterized by greater values of vCOP compared to CG (EO), while, in CG, greater values of vCOP were noted in the second trial. The type of hearing device was found to be related to the values of area (EO) (p &lt; 0.001), which were always greater in SG, regardless of the visual perception. Conclusions: Late unilateral CI may impact the activation of different models of the auditory compensatory mechanism than HA, which is related to neuromuscular control. The values of vCOP can be predicted by age in late-CI individuals. Visual perception seems not to be related to the values of the area, which can be impacted both by CI and HA.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/audiolres14040048","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,28]],"date-time":"2024-06-28T06:51:53Z","timestamp":1719557513000},"page":"572-580","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Postural Stability of Adolescents with Late Cochlear Implantation and Hearing Aids: A Non-Randomized Trial"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4284-8697","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anna","family":"Zwierzchowska","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sport Sciences, The Jerzy Kukuczka Academy of Physical Education, 40-065 Katowice, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8609-5036","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eliza","family":"Gawe\u0142","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sport Sciences, The Jerzy Kukuczka Academy of Physical Education, 40-065 Katowice, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Agata","family":"Kru\u017cy\u0144ska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The School and Preschool Complex for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children, 40-126 Katowice, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8447-4251","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kajetan J.","family":"S\u0142omka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sport Sciences, The Jerzy Kukuczka Academy of Physical Education, 40-065 Katowice, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7446-528X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aleksandra","family":"\u017bebrowska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sport Sciences, The Jerzy Kukuczka Academy of Physical Education, 40-065 Katowice, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Grzegorz","family":"Juras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sport Sciences, The Jerzy Kukuczka Academy of Physical Education, 40-065 Katowice, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1101","DOI":"10.2466\/pms.2000.90.3c.1101","article-title":"Evidence of progressive delay of motor development in children with sensorineural hearing loss and concurrent vestibular dysfunction","volume":"90","author":"Rine","year":"2000","journal-title":"Percept.
