Abstract:The study evaluates the accuracy of predicting intracochlear pressure during bone conduction stimulation using promontory velocity and ear canal pressure, as less invasive alternatives to intracochlear pressure. Stimulating with a percutaneous bone conduction device implanted in six human cadaveric ears, measurements were taken across various intensities, frequencies, and stimulation positions. Results indicate that intracochlear pressure linearly correlates with ear canal pressure (R2 = 0.43, RMSE = 6.85 dB),… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
