title: [Rehabilitation of cochlear implant patients].
abstract: Pre- and post-surgical treatment of cochlear implant patients is discussed. Before surgery training of lipreading ability, auditory training with conventional hearing aids and counselling should be offered. After surgery the main focus lies on auditory training with the cochlear implant; communication training in a group and counselling should be offered too.
