COCHLEAR IMPLANTATION IN IRAN [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 1996
Deafness has been considered a non - resolving problem until the invention of cochlear implantation (CI). We are reporting the pre- and post-operative results of 14 patients underwent CI, for the first time in Iran, at the cochlear implantation Clinic of

PromBERA: A preoperative eABR: An update

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2018
Prior to cochlear implantation, audiological tests are performed to determine candidacy in subjects with a hearing loss. This is usually done by measuring the acoustic auditory brainstem response (ABR).

An increase in alpha band frequency in resting state EEG after electrical stimulation of the ear in tinnitus patients - a pilot study

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2016
In our clinic invasive transtympanal promontory positive DC stimulations were first used, with a success rate of 42%. However, non-invasive hydrotransmissive negative DC stimulations are now favoured, with improvement being obtained in 37.8% directly ...

Retrolabyrinthine approach for cochlear nerve preservation in neurofibromatosis type 2 and simultaneous cochlear implantation

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2013
Summary Introduction: Few cases of cochlear implantation (CI) in neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) patients had been reported in the literature. The approaches described were translabyrinthine, retrosigmoid or middle cranial fossa.

Intracochlear pressure in cadaver heads under bone conduction and intracranial fluid stimulation [PDF]

, 2022
Background The frequency dependent contributions of the various bone conduction pathways are poorly understood, especially the fluid pathway. The aim of this work is to measure and investigate sound pressure propagation from the intracranial space to ...

Excitation of the Auditory System as a Result of Non-invasive Extra-Cochlear Stimulation in Normal Subjects and Tinnitus Patients

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
One of possible approach that may suppress tinnitus is electrical stimulation of the ear. At first invasive techniques were used (promontory or round window stimulation), nowadays a non-invasive method, namely hydrotransmissive electric stimulation (ES ...

Assessment of Ipsilateral Efferent Effects in Human via ECochG

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Development of electrophysiological means to assess the medial olivocochlear (MOC) system in humans is important to further our understanding of the function of that system and for the refinement and validation of psychoacoustical and otoacoustic ...

Induction of water stress tolerance of mustard plants using Trichoderma as biological seed treatment [PDF]

, 2014
Water scarcity is one of the main consequences of changing climate which adversely affects the plant growth and productivity. Enhanced root development results in increased surface area of active absorption for water and nutrient uptake which helps in ...

Feasibility of 15O-water PET studies of auditory system activation during general anesthesia in children

EJNMMI Research, 2018
Background 15O-Water positron emission tomography (PET) enables functional imaging of the auditory system during stimulation via a promontory electrode or cochlear implant, which is not possible using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI ...
