  • Publication number: 20090076569
    Abstract: System and methods for fitting a cochlear implant for a recipient. In a fitting method, receiving, at an acoustic domain user interface, an acoustic target intensity for each of a plurality of frequency channels at which the recipient is to experience a desired percept; loading into a speech processor unit of the cochlear implant a MAP specifying a stimulation signal current level corresponding to a selected acoustic target; presenting the selected acoustic target to the cochlear implant so as to cause the cochlear implant to deliver electrical stimulation to the recipient at the current level corresponding to the selected acoustic target; and upon receipt of an external command: adjusting the current level corresponding to the selected acoustic target; and repeating the loading and the presenting steps.
