Auditory perception changes after reimplantation in a child cochlear implant user.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Click and galvanic stimulations of vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (c-VEMP and g-VEMP) were applied to measure the interaural difference (IAD) of saccular responses in patients with acute low-tone sensorineural hearing loss (ALHL). This study intended to explore the relationship between saccular asymmetr...
