The Effect of Sleep Deprivation on the Vestibulo‐Ocular Reflex and Vestibular Adaptation in Healthcare Night‐Shift Workers

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study examined the effects of sleep deprivation on the vestibulo‐ocular reflex (VOR) in healthcare night‐shift workers. Results showed a significant reduction in VOR gain (7.5%) during passive head movements toward far targets after a night shift, whereas other VOR functions and gaze stability remained unaffected.

A Novel 3D Printed Multi‐Material Simulator for Endoscopic Stapes Surgery: The “3D Stapes Trainer”

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The 3D Stapes Trainer represents a promising platform for training in endoscopic stapes surgery. This simulator consists of a multi‐use temporal bone holder and a single‐use middle ear box, printed with material Jetting 3D printing technology. Eight participants in a university ear surgery course used the simulator to perform endoscopic stapes surgery.

A 0.042 mm^2 programmable biphasic stimulator for cochlear implants suitable for a large number of channels [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
This paper presents a compact programmable biphasic stimulator for cochlear implants. By employing double-loop negative feedback, the output impedance of the current generator is increased, while maximizing the voltage compliance of the output transistor.

Percutaneous Bone Implant Surgery: A MIPS Modified Technique

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Since their introduction, passive percutaneous hearing aids have undergone substantial evolution, including changes in implant production, improvements in the sound processor, and simplification of surgical implantation techniques. The latest innovation comes from the minimally invasive technique proposed for the PONTO system (MIPS), which does not ...

Systematic Review of Quality of Life in Bone Anchored Hearing: Conductive vs. Unilateral Sensorineural Hearing Loss

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The literature demonstrates that bone‐anchored hearing implants have a positive impact on auditory performance and quality of life (QoL), but these outcomes may not always correlate. This systematic review analyzed 56 articles to identify discrepancies in self‐reported, disease‐specific QoL benefits among patients with either unilateral sensorineural ...

Synchrotron‐Based Trauma Assessment of Robotic Electrode Insertions in Cochlear Implantation

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Minimizing intraoperative trauma during cochlear implant electrode insertion is crucial for preserving residual hearing, and efforts have been made to introduce robotic systems for electrode insertion. On temporal bone specimens, the OTODRIVE system demonstrated its ability to enable consistent and controlled electrode placement while minimizing trauma

A Clinical Feasibility Study of Spinal Evoked Compound Action Potential Estimation Methods

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a treatment for chronic neuropathic pain. Recently, SCS has been enhanced further with evoked compound action potential (ECAP) sensing. Characteristics of the ECAP, if appropriately isolated from concurrent stimulation artifact (SA), may be used to control, and aid in the programming of, SCS systems.
