    Notes: Summary Seminal quantitative group acoustic data are presented on voice quality changes following electrical stimulation (ES) of the auditory nerve via a single-channel cochlear implant (CI). It was found that the fundamental frequency (Fo) of our patients was significantly lower after the first day of ES, while intensity and speaking duration were not significantly different from pre-CI values. These results suggest that the CI provides enough frequency information 〈 300 Hz to permit immediate and independent alterations in voice Fo towards normal-hearing speakers values. Our findings also indicate that intensity and speaking duration require additional time before differences found become significant. Longitudinal data are still needed to determine if Fo continues to lower and if intensity and/or speaking duration change significantly to approximate values observed in normal-hearing individuals.

    Notes: Summary Although descriptions of dizziness constitute a major category of complaints among patients seen in many clinical practices, the actual significance of the patient's report of symptoms has been disputed. Furthermore, the relationship of report to outcomes of clinical tests of the audio-vestibular system has not been well described. The present study examined the relationship of a self-report measure to results of electronystagmographic and audiometric evaluations in a consecutive sampling of patients at a Veterans Administration Medical Center. The findings reflected poor predictability of peripheral vestibular involvement when using the self-reporting questionnaire by patients, even when combined with audiometric observations. The utility of the self-report approach is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Stepwise regression analysis was used to evaluate measures predictive of the selection of candidates for cochlear implants. Results of a comprehensive selection protocol were compiled for a group of 31 profoundly hearing-impaired adults undergoing intensive pre-selection evaluation. Data included: unaided audiologic; aided audiologic; vestibular; otologic; medical; radiologic; voice/speech; speechreading; psychoacoustic; and electrophysiologic parameters. The results of the Cochlear Implant Team's decisions concerning selections of patients for implants were compared with the predictive outcome of regression analysis. Ramifications for the construction of cochlear implant evaluation protocols are discussed.
