The three map conditions were: (1) maps with the default filter settings (default map), (2) place-based maps with filters aligned to cochlear SG tonotopicity using the SG function (SG place-based map), and (3) place-based maps with filters aligned to cochlear Organ of Corti (OC) tonotopicity using the SR-AI function (SR-AI place-based map). Speech recognition was evaluated using a vowel recognition task. Performance was scored as the percent correct for formant 1 recognition due to the rationale that the maps would deviate the most in the estimated cochlear place frequency for low frequencies.Results: On average, participants had better performance with the OC SR-AI place-based map as compared to the SG place-based map and the default map. A larger performance benefit was observed for EAS users than for CI-alone users.Conclusion: These pilot data suggest that EAS and CI-alone users may experience better performance with a patient-centered mapping approach that accounts for the variability in cochlear morphology (OC SR-AI frequency-to-place function) in the individualization of the electric filter frequencies (place-based mapping procedure). 收起
