Exemplary cochlear implant systems (100) include an implantable cochlear stimulator (105) configured to be im-planted within a patient and generate a stimulation current having an adjustable current level, one or more electrodes (107) commu-nicatively coupled to the stimulator (105) and configured to apply the stimulation current to one or more locations within an ear of the patient, and a sound processor (103) configured to derive an acoustic reflectance of the patient's ear. The implantable cochlear stimulator (105) is configured to adjust the current level of the stimulation current until the sound processor (103) detects a change in the acoustic reflectance above a threshold.

Des systèmes implantés cochléaires (100) modèles comprennent un stimulateur cochléaire implantable (105) conçu pour être implanté chez un patient et pour générer un courant de stimulation dont le niveau est réglable, une ou plusieurs électrodes (107) couplées de manière communicative au stimulateur (105), et conçues de façon à exercer le courant de stimulation sur un ou plusieurs points de l'oreille du patient, et un processeur vocal (103) conçu pour obtenir une réflectance acoustique de l'oreille du patient. Le stimulateur cochléaire implantable (105) est conçu de manière à régler le niveau du courant de stimulation jusqu'à ce que le processeur vocal (103) détecte un changement dans la réflectance acoustique située au-dessus d'un seuil.
