Promontory electrical stimulation to elicit vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs)

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2015
Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) provoked electrically at the promontory provide a feasible method to record vestibular responses in awake patients.Electrically evoked VEMP testing has been performed by galvanic stimulation at the mastoid so far.

Tinnitus Suppression by Electrical Promontory Stimulation in Sensorineural Deaf Patients

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1993
In 62 patients, whose hearing acuity was normal or profoundly impaired, tinnitus suppression was attempted through electrical promontory stimulation (EPS) with a Promontory Stimulator (Cochlear Co.). The causes of tinnitus were idiopathic sudden deafness, ototoxicity, noise induced hearing loss, labyrinthitis, Meniere's disease, acoustic neuroma and ...

Value of the Promontory Stimulation Test in Predicting Speech Perception After Cochlear Implantation

Laryngoscope, 2007
AbstractBackground and Objectives: To determine the role of the promontory stimulation test (PST) in cochlear implantation (CI), we evaluated the correlations between PST parameters and the results of speech perception tests after CI.Subjects and Method: With use of a retrospective review of the medical records of 58 patients, the GAP50, GAP100, TDL50,

Reliability of the Promontory Stimulation Test for the Preoperative Evaluation of Cochlear Implants: A Comparison with the Round Window Stimulation Test

Auris Nasus Larynx, 1994
The electrical stimulatory threshold of the preoperative promontory stimulation test (PST) was compared with the postoperative threshold of the electrode following cochlear implantation. Postoperative results from warble-tone audiometry, the vowel recognition test, the consonant recognition test, and the speech tracking test, which employed a speech ...

Utilization of Nerve Integrity Monitor for Promontory Stimulation Testing Prior to Cochlear Implant

Otology and Neurotology, 2018
Objective: To demonstrate the feasibility of a nerve integrity monitor as a tool for promontory stimulation testing in patients with profound sensorineural hearing loss considering cochlear implantation. Patients: Adult patients considered for cochlear implantation with no auditory ...

A Comparison of Round-Window and Transtympanic Promontory Electric Stimulation in Cochlear Implant Candidates

Ear and Hearing, 1992
We compared within-subjects electrical thresholds and dynamic ranges obtained with direct round-window and transtympanic promontory stimulation carried out preoperatively in 12 patients who were candidates for a cochlear implant. Square waves with frequencies of 50, 100, 200, and 400 Hz were delivered in a 50% duty cycle to both sites in each patient ...

Feasibility of direct promontory stimulation by bone conduction: A preliminary study of frequency-response characteristics in cats

Hearing Research, 2019
As an alternative pathway to air conduction, bone conduction is a multipathway process that transmits sound energy to the inner ear through the skull in general. Based on this mechanism, bone conduction devices (BCDs) have been used widely in the rehabilitation of hearing loss. Although great efforts have been devoted to improving BCDs, drawbacks still

Evaluation of patients for cochlear implant by promontory stimulation: Psychophysical responses and electrically evoked brainstem potentials

International Journal of Audiology, 1986
The protocol for assessing patients for cochlear implantation at University College Hospital and the Royal National Institute for the Deaf, London, includes a session of electrophysiological tests and electrical stimulation of the cochlea. Electrocochleography is performed with the object of excluding non-organic hearing loss and of clarifying the site

Interaction between osseous and non-osseous vibratory stimulation of the human cadaveric head [PDF]

open access: yesHearing Research, 2016
Bone conduction (BC) stimulation can be applied by vibration to the bony or skin covered skull (osseous BC), or on soft tissue such as the neck (non-osseous BC). The interaction between osseous and non-osseous bone conduction pathways is assessed in this
