Özet

OBJECTIVES: Programming the cochlear implant's speech processor with subjective methods in young, uncooperative children is difficult. Since young children cannot provide adequate feedback to the clinician, objective methods which do not require patient's response were often used. Electrical Stapedius Reflex Test is one of the most common procedures used. The goal of this study was to investigate the relationship between electricalstapedius reflex thresholds and behaviorally most comfortable levels in experienced cochlear implant users.
