The retrospective arm will be enrolling by invitation for chart review of subjects implanted with a MED-EL cochlear implant under 6 years of age between January 2005 and October 2020. The specific devices and outcome measures will vary slightly for retrospective subjects, based on what was clinically available and used at the time of implantation.
