摘要

ObjectiveAutoNRT™ is an automated system that measures electrically evoked compound action potential (ECAP) thresholds from the auditory nerve with the Nucleus® Freedom™ cochlear implant. ECAP thresholds along the electrode array are useful in objectively fitting cochlear implant systems for individual use. This paper provides the first detailed description of the AutoNRT algorithm and its expert systems, and reports the clinical success of AutoNRT to date.
