    摘要: A method of at least partially fitting a hearing prosthesis device to a recipient, including obtaining access to a sensory prosthesis that has been used to evoke a sensory percept using a first focusing regime for a temporal period corresponding to at least acclimation to the first focusing regime and adjusting a control setting of the prosthesis to increase focusing relative to that which is the case with respect to the first focusing regime, wherein the action of adjusting the control setting includes purposely adjusting the control setting to have focusing that is effectively less focused than a maximum focus possible.

    摘要: Presented herein are techniques for setting operational parameters of an implantable medical device system based on a combination of at least one monopolar stimulation measurement and one or more multipolar (focused) stimulation measurements. In particular, the techniques presented herein perform at least one objective or behavioral measurement using monopolar stimulation, and the same objective or behavioral measurement using focused stimulation with one or more degrees of focusing. Hearing outcomes/responses evoked in response to each of the measurements are captured/recorded and evaluated relative to one another to set one or more operational parameters, such as the degree of focusing, of the implantable medical device or implantable medical device system.

    摘要: Presented herein are techniques for bilateral-coordination of channel selection in bilateral hearing prosthesis systems. A bilateral hearing prosthesis system comprises first and second hearing prostheses each configured to receive sound signals, and a processing module. The processing module is configured to select, based on bilateral sound information, a set of sound processing channels for use by both of the first and second hearing prostheses. The first hearing prosthesis is configured stimulate the first ear of the recipient using stimulation generated from the sound signals received at the first hearing prosthesis and processed in at least the set of sound processing channels by the first hearing prosthesis. The second hearing prosthesis is configured stimulate the second ear of the recipient using stimulation generated from the sound signals received at the second hearing prosthesis and processed in at least the set of sound processing channels by the second hearing prosthesis.
