The German HSM Sentence Test, available on compact disc (CD), consists of 30 lists of 20 everyday sentences. It was developed in the desire to have a sufficient number of test sentences for the repeated evaluation of speech understanding of CI users. A noise with speech-shaped spectrum on the CD allows the evaluation of speech understanding in noise. With the HSM Sentence Test we evaluated the speech understanding of participants of the Combi-40 European Multicentric Study. Results are shown for sentences presented without noise and with signal-to-noise ratios of 15, 10, 5 and 0 dB.
