Cochlear implant programming necessitates accurate setting of programming levels, including maximum stimulation levels, of all active electrodes. Frequently, clinical techniques are adequate for setting these levels; however, they are sometimes insufficient (e.g., very young children). In the Nucleus 24, several methods have been suggested for estimation of comfort levels (C levels) from neural response telemetry (NRT); however, many require co-application of clinical measurements. Data was obtained from 21 adult Nucleus 24 recipients to develop reliable predictions of C levels. Multiple regression analysis was performed on NRT threshold, slope of the NRT growth function, age, length of deafness, length of cochlear implant use and electrode impedance to examine predictive ability. Only the NRT threshold and slope of the growth function measures were significant predictors yielding R2 values from 0.391 to 0.769. Results demonstrated that these measures may provide an alternative means of estimating C levels when other clinical measures are unavailable.

The minimum age for cochlear implantation has been reduced to 12 months in an effort to provide auditory stimulation to children with hearing loss during early development. Because behavioral measures in such young children are limited, objective measures such as the electrically evoked compound action potential (EAP) from the auditory nerve are needed to facilitate measurement of stimulation level requirements. We assessed EAPs recorded by the Nucleus 24 neural response telemetry (NRT) system in children who underwent implantation between 12 and 24 months of age. We recorded EAPs in 37 such children (mean age at implantation, 18.1 ± 3.6 months). The EAPs were of large amplitude, and thresholds fell between behavioral T and C levels. A correction factor applied to EAP thresholds provided useful predictions of T levels. The EAPs can be used to ensure that even very young children receive auditory stimulation with their cochlear implants upon device activation.
