Objective audiological tests are needed for pre- and postsurgical evaluation of cochlear prosthesis patients who are unable to give reliable subjective responses. In this study we demonstrated that contralateral intra-aural reflexes were elicited by a cochlear prosthesis in the monkey. Reflex variables measured include threshold, latency and amplitude. These findings indicate that the electrically elicited intra-aural reflex response may be useful to evaluate the peripheral auditory system in subjects with sensory deafness.
对于无法给出可靠主观反应的人工耳蜗植入患者,术前和术后评估都需要进行客观听力测试。在本研究中,我们证明了人工耳蜗能在猴子身上引出对侧耳内反射。所测量的反射变量包括阈值、潜伏期和振幅。这些发现表明,电诱发耳内反射反应可能有助于评估感音神经性耳聋患者的外周听觉系统。
