Abstract | OBJECTIVE: STUDY DESIGN: SETTING: The study was completed in the Departments of Otolaryngology and Audiology, University of Massachusetts Medical Center, Massachusetts. PATIENTS: INTERVENTIONS: MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Outcome measures include results of electrical auditory brainstem response testing, electrical compound action potential measures, and speech recognition scores. RESULTS: Results of testing revealed expected latencies of waves II, III, and V of the electrical auditory brainstem response, measurable compound action potentials across virtually the entire length of the electrode array, and high levels of open-set, auditory-only speech understanding. CONCLUSIONS:
