Natural hearing can be combined with a cochlear implant to improve sound quality and speech understanding. However, natural hearing frequently deteriorates weeks to months after cochlear implantation. This seems to occur when cochlear fluid buildup (hydrops) or fibrosis within the inner ear disrupts cochlear mechanics. We plan to monitor these processes in patients by recording directly from the cochlear implant, and conduct laboratory experiments to find therapies to alleviate their effects.

自然听力可以与人工耳蜗相结合，以改善声音质量和语音理解。然而，人工耳蜗植入后几周到几个月，自然听力经常会恶化。这似乎发生在内耳内的耳蜗液积聚(积水)或纤维化扰乱耳蜗力学的时候。我们计划通过直接从人工耳蜗中记录来监测患者的这些过程，并进行实验室实验，以找到减轻其影响的治疗方法。
