The study investigated the hypothesis that threshold and comfortable levels recorded from cochlear implant patients would reduce, and dynamic range increase, as distance of the electrode from the modiolar wall (radial distance) decreases. Two groups of cochlear implant patients participated; one group using the Nucleus®24 Contour™ electrode array, and one group using the Nucleus standard straight (banded) array. The Nucleus 24 Contour array has been shown in temporal bone studies to lie closer to the modiolus than the banded array. The relationship of electrode impedance and radial distance is also investigated. |
