Intraoperative Acoustic Monitoring Using Threshold and Suprathreshold Pure Tone Audiometry during Cochlear Implantation Under Local Anesthesia: A Simple and Novel Method to Potentially Enhance Hearing Preservation Cochlear Implant Surgery
This report describes the feasibility of intraoperative behavioral audiometry during CI under local anesthesia, using patient feedback during electrode insertion to optimize hearing preservation surgery. Akin to other surgical subspecialties that use real-time patient feedback where objective intraoperative measures of neurofunction are imperfect, we demonstrate feasibility and potential utility of live acoustic monitoring during CI.
