PSIC-TSA: Influence of the Sensory Profile of Deaf Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders on the Outcome of Cochlear Implantation
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
An unpublished study conducted at Toulouse University Hospital revealed that 30% of implanted children with Autism Spectrum Disorders abandon their implant, while 70% of them keep it. The aim of this study is to evaluate the causes of this disparity, which is much greater than in children with cochlear implants without associated Autism Spectrum Disorders. Our problem is as follows: do the sensory hypersensitivity and hyposensitivity of deaf children with Autism Spectrum Disorders have an effect on the expected results after a cochlear implantation from a language and auditory reaction point of view?

Detailed Description
The present study will specifically focus on the sensory profile of these children with Autism Spectrum Disorders, which could be the cause of these developmental difficulties in language and communication development.
