Facilitation and refractoriness of the electrically evoked compound action potential
In this study we aim to resolve the contributions of facilitation and refractoriness at very short pulse intervals. Measurements of the refractory properties of the electrically evoked compound action potential (ECAP) of the auditory nerve in cochlear implant (CI) users at inter pulse intervals below 300 μs are influenced by facilitation and recovery effects. ECAPs were recorded using masker pu...
متن کاملThe Electrically Evoked Compound Action Potential: From Laboratory to Clinic
The electrically evoked compound action potential (eCAP) represents the synchronous firing of a population of electrically stimulated auditory nerve fibers. It can be directly recorded on a surgically exposed nerve trunk in animals or from an intra-cochlear electrode of a cochlear implant. In the past two decades, the eCAP has been widely recorded in both animals and clinical patient population...
متن کاملRelationship between Electrically Evoked Compound Action Potential Thresholds and Auditory, Language, and Speech Progress after Cochlear Implant Surgery
Introduction: Electrically evoked compound action potential (ECAP) is an objective auditory response that can be used in the programing of cochlear implants. The aims of this study were to monitor ECAP thresholds and auditory, language and speech progress for 6 months after cochlear implant surgery and to evaluate any relationship between them. Materials and Methods: Ten children with a m...
متن کاملA simple two-component model of the electrically evoked compound action potential in the human cochlea.
Neural response telemetry (NRT) permits in situ intracochlear recordings of the electrically evoked compound action potential from the auditory nerves using scala tympani electrodes. The recorded NRT waveforms can generally be categorized under either single positive peak or double positive peak waveforms. This is similar to the observations from Stypulkowski and van den Honert, who suggested t...
متن کاملEffects of long-term use of a cochlear implant on the electrically evoked compound action potential.
BACKGROUND Since the early 1990s, it has been possible to measure electrically evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) from Nucleus cochlear implant users. Recording the ECAP does not require active participation by the subject, and the recordings are not adversely affected by attention or sleep, making this response an ideal tool for monitoring long-term changes. Previous research from our l...
