Brainstem01:19

Brainstem

6.5K
The brainstem, located inferior to the brain and superior to the spinal cord, serves as a bridge between the cerebrum and the spinal cord. It plays a vital role in relaying information and controlling critical life functions. It comprises three primary regions: the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata.
The Midbrain
The midbrain is located beneath the diencephalon and connects the cerebrum with the lower parts of the brain. The cerebral peduncles are prominent midbrain structures that house the...

Bipolar Disorder01:30

Bipolar Disorder

754
Bipolar disorder is a chronic mental health condition marked by significant mood fluctuations, including episodes of mania and depression. Elevated energy levels, heightened mood or irritability, impulsive behavior, reduced sleep needs, rapid speech, racing thoughts, inflated self-esteem, and distractibility characterize mania. Individuals with bipolar disorder often alternate between depressive and manic states, with periods of emotional stability lasting an average of six months to a year.

Bipolar Junction Transistor01:22

Bipolar Junction Transistor

1.5K
Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs) are essential elements in electronic circuits, playing a crucial role in the functionality of amplifiers, memories, and microprocessors. These transistors can be designed as NPN or PNP based on their doping patterns. They consist of three layers: the emitter, base, and collector. The configuration of these layers and their respective doping levels—with N-type or P-type impurities—define the transistor's type and its operational...

The Auditory Ossicles01:11

The Auditory Ossicles

3.1K
The auditory ossicles of the middle ear transmit sounds from the air as vibrations to the fluid-filled cochlea. The auditory ossicles consist of two malleus (hammer) bones, two incus (anvil) bones, and two stapes (stirrups), one on each side. These bones develop during the fetal stage and are the ones to ossify first. They are fully mature at birth and do not grow afterward.
The aptly named stapes look very much like a stirrup. The three ossicles are unique to mammals, and each plays a role in...

Auditory Pathway01:15

Auditory Pathway

7.3K
Auditory pathways constitute the complex neural circuits responsible for transmitting and interpreting auditory information from the peripheral auditory system to the brain. Sound waves are initially captured by the outer ear, funneled through the ear canal, and reach the tympanic membrane (eardrum). These vibrations are transmitted via the middle ear's ossicles to the inner ear's cochlea.
When viewed cross-sectionally, the cochlea reveals the scala vestibuli and scala tympani flanking...

Auditory Perception01:17

Auditory Perception

1.1K
The auditory system is essential for sound perception, utilizing various critical structures. When sound waves enter the outer ear, they travel through the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted to the middle ear, where three tiny bones – the malleus, incus, and stapes – amplify the sound. This amplification is crucial, as it ensures that the sound vibrations are strong enough to be conveyed to the inner ear. These vibrations then reach the...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

This study introduces a new method for reliable electrically evoked auditory brainstem responses (eEABRs) in cochlear implant (CI) candidates. Bipolar stimulation of the round window (RW) proved more effective than monopolar stimulation for eEABR recordings.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Audiology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Auditory brainstem potentials can be elicited by round window (RW) electrical stimulation.
  • Extracochlear stimulation is used for cochlear implant (CI) candidate selection to prevent cochlear damage.
  • Previous methods were limited by large electrical stimulation artifacts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a reliable and reproducible method for obtaining electrically evoked auditory brainstem responses (eEABRs).
  • To overcome limitations of existing extracochlear stimulation techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective study of 49 subjects undergoing CI surgery (2013-2016).
  • Utilized a 'Stimulator Box' for CI-like electrical stimuli and evoked potential recording equipment.
  • Compared monopolar versus bipolar electrode stimulation on the RW.

Main Results:

  • Stable RW eEABR recordings with Wave V between 3-5.5 ms were achieved.
  • Increasing phase duration yielded more responses than increasing pulse amplitude.
  • Bipolar stimulation resulted in a significantly higher percentage of positive responses compared to monopolar stimulation (p<0.001).

Conclusions:

  • The described extracochlear electrical stimulation technique enables reliable and reproducible eEABR recordings.
  • Bipolar electrical stimulation probes are superior for eEABR assessment in CI candidates.
