Multi‐Frequency Electrocochleography Results in Fewer Drop Alarms During Cochlear Implant Insertion

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A novel multi‐frequency electrocochleography (ECochG) algorithm used during cochlear implant electrode insertion is associated with fewer drop alarms and an increase in optimal insertion track patterns. Multi‐frequency ECochG may provide a more accurate assessment of the cochlear microenvironment when compared to single‐frequency ECochG.

Assessing the accuracy and reliability of application-based audiometry for hearing evaluation

Scientific Reports
Pure-tone audiometry (PTA) is the gold standard for assessing hearing loss. However, traditional PTA tests require specialized equipment, trained personnel, and a soundproof environment.

Performance and Reliability Evaluation of an Automated Bone-Conduction Audiometry Using Machine Learning

Trends in Hearing
To date, pure-tone audiometry remains the gold standard for clinical auditory testing. However, pure-tone audiometry is time-consuming and only provides a discrete estimate of hearing acuity. Here, we aim to address these two main drawbacks by developing
