Current practice in CI rehabilitation seems to be insufficient to improve threatening illness perceptions (except for perceived consequences). This may be because standard information often fails to reach the patients. The development and empirical validation of an intervention program to address individual illness perceptions in CI recipients could be helpful in this context. Further research will be needed to confirm the results.
