This report describes the application of the software tool "Fitting to Outcomes eXpert" (FOX) in programming the cochlear implant (CI) processor in new users. FOX is an intelligent agent to assist in the programming of CI processors. The concept of FOX is to modify maps on the basis of specific outcome measures, achieved using heuristic logic and based on a set of deterministic "rules".
A prospective study was conducted on eight consecutive CI-users with a follow-up of three months.
Eight adult subjects with postlingual deafness were implanted with the Advanced Bionics HiRes90k device. The implants were programmed using FOX, running a set of rules known as Eargroup's EG0910 advice, which features a set of "automaps". The protocol employed for the initial 3 months is presented, with description of the map modifications generated by FOX and the corresponding psychoacoustic test results.
The 3 month median results show 25 dBHL as PTA, 77% (55 dBSPL) and 71% (70 dBSPL) phoneme score at speech audiometry and loudness scaling in or near to the normal zone at different frequencies.
It is concluded that this approach is feasible to start up CI fitting and yields good outcome.
本报告介绍了软件工具“结果专家拟合（FOX）”在新用户中编程人工耳蜗（CI）处理器的应用。FOX 是一个智能代理，用于辅助 CI 处理器的编程。FOX 的概念是基于特定的结果测量来修改图谱，这些结果是使用启发式逻辑并基于一组确定性“规则”获得的。
对 8 例连续的 CI 用户进行前瞻性研究，随访 3 个月。
8 例成人后天性耳聋患者植入 Advanced Bionics HiRes90k 设备。使用 FOX 编程，运行一组名为 Eargroup 的 EG0910 建议的规则，该规则具有一组“自动图谱”。介绍了最初 3 个月的方案，描述了 FOX 生成的图谱修改和相应的听觉心理测试结果。
3 个月的中位数结果显示，纯音听阈平均值为 25dBHL，言语测听的 77%（55dBSPL）和 71%（70dBSPL）语音得分，以及不同频率下响度标度接近正常范围。
可以得出结论，这种方法可用于启动 CI 适配并产生良好的结果。
