Pre-operative appraisal of cochlear implant results by means of electrical promontory stimulation: Preliminary report

open access: closedArchives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1984
A test procedure based on the patient's understanding of acoustic material is presented. The score obtained in this test showed a highly significant correlation with the postoperative score evaluated by independent examiners 4 weeks after stimulator adjustment.

Cortical responses to promontorial stimulation in postlingual deafness

Hearing Research, 2005
Electrical stimulation with a transtympanic electrode on the promontory of the middle ear allows the tasks of gap detection and temporal difference limen (TDL) to be carried out by both normally hearing and deaf subjects. Previous neuroimaging of normally hearing subjects revealed a region in the right posterior temporal lobe that is crucial to ...

Promontory stimulation following labyrinthectomy

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1991
AbstractPromontory stimulation testing was carried out on a series of ten patients who had undergone osseous labyrinthectomy. The thresholds, discomfort levels and dynamic ranges were found to be comparable with a series of ten patients who have subsequently been successfully implanted with the Nucleus 22 channel cochlear implant.

Round Window versus Promontory Stimulation: Assessment for Cochlear Implant Candidacy

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1991
Electrical stimulation of the cochlea is a part of the preliminary evaluation protocol for cochlear implant candidacy at many centers. Typically, a transtympanic needle electrode is placed on the promontory of the ear under consideration and electrical current is presented to measure auditory percepts and psychophysical-electrophysiologic measures ...

The role of the promontory stimulation test in cochlear implantation

Cochlear Implants International, 2002
To date, 290 adults have been implanted in the cochlear implant programme in Sydney (Australia), where the promontory stimulation test (PST) is routinely used to assess implant candidacy. There has been much controversy over the exact role and value of this test.

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

The 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 ...

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
