<p class="jove_content">In cochlear implantation, slow electrode insertion has been shown to improve hearing and preserve structural integrity. This article presents a technique for robotic-arm-assisted slow insertion of cochlear implant (CI) electrodes, combined with cochlear microphonics recording, as a possible instantaneous objective measure of structure preservation.</p>

Robotic Arm Assisted Slow Electrode Insertion and Simultaneous Measurement of Cochlear Microphonics in Cochlear Implantation

Cochlear microphonic potentials (CMPs) are an electrical response predominantly of the outer and, to a smaller degree, the inner hair cells to acoustic ...
