Abstract:Minimally traumatic surgical techniques and advances in cochlear implant (CI) electrode array designs have allowed acoustic hearing present in a CI candidate prior to surgery to be preserved post-operatively. As a result, these patients benefit from combined electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS) post-operatively. However, 30-40% of EAS CI users experience a partial loss of hearing up to 30 dB after surgery. In the present study, electrocochleography (ECoG) was used to study cochlear microphonic (hair cell respon… Show more
