High-Resolution EEG Amplifiers Are Feasible for Electrocochleography Without Time Restriction
Objectives: The gold standard for electrocochleography (ECochG) is using dedicated recording devices for auditory evoked potentials. However, these have a very limited time window for recording.

An intact cochlear nerve is necessary for successful cochlear implantation (CI). Although the promontory stimulation test (PST) using a promontory stimulator (PS) and a transtympanic needle electrode is invasive, it is still commonly used to verify cochlear nerve function.

Tinnitus Treatment with Alternating Polarity Promontory Stimulator.
This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of the suppression of severe tinnitus by the alternating polarity electrical promontory stimulation (EPS) method. The three types of stimulation used in this study were electrical burst (duration 0.5 sec., 1 Hz) of 1) biphasic pulsed AC, 2) pulsed anodal DC and 3) pulsed cathodal DC. In 27 subjects (

Efficacy of high frequency switched-mode stimulation in activating Purkinje cells [PDF]
This paper investigates the efficacy of high frequency switched-mode neural stimulation. Instead of using a constant stimulation amplitude, the stimulus is switched on and off repeatedly with a high frequency (up to 100kHz) duty cycled signal. By means of tissue modeling that includes the dynamic properties of both the tissue material as well as the ...

The Dynamic Shift of Neuron Excitability Observed with Enveloped High Frequency Stimulation [PDF]
Neuronal excitability is known to be affected by transcranial electrical stimulation. However, due to the existence of both excitatory and inhibitory neurons in the cortex, the mechanism of neuronal excitability shift is still not clear. Here, we study electrical stimulation disturbance on neuronal excitability in the neuromuscular system on an acute ...

Mechanomyography based closed-loop Functional Electrical Stimulation cycling system [PDF]
Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) systems are successful in restoring motor function and supporting paralyzed users. Commercially available FES products are open loop, meaning that the system is unable to adapt to changing conditions with the user and their muscles which results in muscle fatigue and poor stimulation protocols. This is because it

Vibrotactile versus Visual Stimulation in Learning the Piano [PDF]
Vibrotactile stimulation has been explored to accelerate the acquisition of motor skills involving finger movements (Gemicioglu et al. 2022, Markow et al. 2010, Seim et al. 2017). This study evaluates the effectiveness of vibrotactile stimulation compared to visual feedback in learning a 14-note one-handed tune on the piano.

A hierarchical neural stimulation model for pain relief by variation of coil design parameters [PDF]
Neural stimulation represents a powerful technique for neural disorder treatment. This paper deals with optimization of coil design parameters to be used during stimulation for modulation of neuronal firing to achieve pain relief. Pain mechanism is briefly introduced and a hierarchical stimulation model from coil stimulation to neuronal firing is ...

Evaluation of Electric Promontory Stimulation Test for Cerebellopontine Angle Tumors.
Transtympanic electric promontory stimulation (EPS) was first performed by House & Brackmann for the purpose of differentiating between sensory and neural type deafness. There are few reports dealing with EPS in neural deafness. This paper focuses on the accuracy of EPS, with the use of a promontory stimulator (Nucleus Co.), in patients with neural ...
