Manometric rhinometry: a new method of measuring the volume of the air in the nasal cavity.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Setting the optimal rate of stimulation for individual cochlear implant recipients is critical to the successful functional outcome of cochlear implantation. In the absence of an objective methodology, cochlear implants are currently fitted by means of a time-consuming (and therefore expensive) trial-and-erro...
