  • Title: Psychophysics of 12 channels implant.
    Author: Chouard CH, Fugain C, Drira M, Alcaras N.
    Journal: Acta Otolaryngol Suppl; 1984; 411():105-10. PubMed ID: 6596832.
    Abstract:
    A battery of psychophysic tests has been designed through a computerized command of the patient's emitter. Because of the fatigability of these implanted patients, especially in the case of deaf-mute children, and the tedious aspect of these exams only 4 tests are commonly used: the threshold level in a Békésy way, the tone decay test, the 2 channels discrimination at different intensity levels, the lowest intensity discrimination. If the electrode impedances have been per-operatively measured, these tests are useful to understand the particular phonemic discrimination difficulties of each patient.
