Abstract



Objectives: The aim of the present study is to investigate the relationship between
the eSRT and eCAP thresholds with the behavioral comfortable levels in CI users
implanted with CI422.

Materials and Methods: There were 10 CI user
included in the study with mean age at evaluation 20.47.
five electrodes were selected from different regions
of cochlea for comparison. For these five electrodes, behavioral C levels were
determined with Custom Sound
â 5.2 Fitting Software and eCAP and eSRT thresholds
were obtained with Custom Sound
â EP 5.2.

Results: Correlations analysis was
done between behavioral C levels and eSRT or eCAP separately. For E22,
behavioral C level was positively correlated with eSRT (r=.772; p= .009;
p<.01). However, there was no correlational relation with eCAP. For E1,
behavioral C level was positively correlated with both eSRT (r=0.785; p=.007;
p< .01) and eCAP (r=0.812; p=.004; p<.01).
there was not any correlational relation between eSRT and eCAP except
E1.
Behavioral C levels was compared with ECAP and ESRT
with related-samples Wilcoxon test. Behavioral C levels for all electrodes are
statistically significantly different from eSRT levels.







Conclusion: This study is the first study that investigates the
objective measures and behavioral method in adults with CI422 implants. Both
eCAP and eSRT can be used in CI fitting but eSRT levels are significantly
higher than the behavioral C levels. In order to provide adequate stimulation
the combination of the objective measures and behavioral methods was considered
to be the best option.
