AUTOMATIC FITTING-MAPPING-TRACKING BASED ON ELECTRODE IMPEDANCES IN COCHLEAR IMPLANTS

摘要

A system, method, and computer product for adjusting dynamic range of electrical stimulation associated with a cochlear prosthesis system is provided. The cochlear prosthesis system includes an electrode array for stimulating the acoustic nerve. Present electrode impedance values are determined for an electrode in the array. At least one stimulation parameter for the electrode is adjusted based, at least in part, on the present electrode impedance values, such that hearing sensation is not influenced due to a change between the present electrode impedance values and previous electrode impedance values.
