Neural Modulation Transmission Is a Marker for Speech Perception in Noise in Cochlear Implant Users

Conclusions:
The results of the present study show that the 40-Hz EASSR can be used to objectively assess the neural encoding of TEMs in human CI recipients. Overall reduced or largely variable TEM encoding of the neural ensembles across the electrode array, as quantified with the CIMTD/CIMTI, is highly correlated with speech perception in noise outcome with a CI.
