Electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve: II. Effect of stimulus waveshape on single fibre response properties.

To investigate the generation of action potentials by electrical stimulation we studied the response of auditory nerve fibres (ANFs) to a variety of stimulus waveforms. Current pulses were presented to longitudinal bipolar scala tympani electrodes implanted in normal and deafened cochleae. Capacitively coupled monophasic current pulses evoked single ANF responses that were more sensitive to one...

Electrical cochlear stimulation in the deaf cat: comparisons between psychophysical and central auditory neuronal thresholds.

Cochlear prostheses for electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve ("electrical hearing") can provide auditory capacity for profoundly deaf adults and children, including in many cases a restored ability to perceive speech without visual cues. A fundamental challenge in auditory neuroscience is to understand the neural and perceptual mechanisms that make rehabilitation of hearing possible in ...

Auditory response to intracochlear electric stimuli following furosemide treatment.

The influence of functional hair cells on electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve is an important issue as individuals with significant residual hearing are now cochlear implant candidates. Previous work has shown that chemical deafening during the course of acute experiments changes the auditory nerve's responses to electrical stimulation [Third Quarterly Progress Report, NIH contract N01...

Synaptic responses and electrical properties of cells in brain slices of the mouse anteroventral cochlear nucleus.

Intracellular recordings were made from cells in brain slices of the anteroventral cochlear nucleus. Responses to electrical stimulation of the stump of the auditory nerve were: (1) all-or-none, following the stimulus with no delay, and insensitive to the removal of extracellular Ca2+, probably representing the firing of directly stimulated auditory nerve fibers, or (2) graded, excitatory posts...

New temporal coding scheme for auditory nerve stimulation.

Electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve provides deaf people with a perception of sound inferior to that of normal­ hearing people. Since any acoustic perception is derived entirely from the output of the auditory nerve, effective co­ chlear implant stimulation strategies should evoke an output of the electrically stimulated auditory nerve that is in some sense a good approximation to that...
