Background/Objectives: Speech perception is measured in quiet and in the presence of background noise, such as multi-talker babble (MTB), to establish cochlear implant (CI) candidacy and measure post-operative outcomes. Testing protocols often use interrupted noise that begins just before and ends shortly after the target sentence, providing insufficient time for the noise-reduction algorithms to activate in the hearing device and provide an improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Furthermore, interrupted noise does not allow the hearing-impaired user to acclimatize to the abrupt onset of noise or to focus on the target sentence, a challenge related to auditory stream segregation. The present study compares speech perception in bimodal CI users across interrupted and continuous MTB noise conditions to highlight performance differences between these two distinct listening environments. Methods: Speech perception was evaluated for two different bimodal CI groups. Group 1: This group evaluated an automatic hearing aid program across three environments: quiet, continuous MTB, and interrupted MTB. Group 2: This group evaluated two manual hearing aid programs across the same three environments (quiet, continuous, and interrupted MTB). Results: For Group 1, scores in quiet reached 88%, significantly declined in interrupted MTB (38%), but improved in continuous MTB (67%). For Group 2, no significant mean differences were found between interrupted and continuous noise across the two manual programs, though individual variations persisted. Conclusions: Based on the findings of this study, continuous noise rather than interrupted noise should be utilized for establishing CI candidacy and evaluating post-implantation speech perception.
