Abstract

A system and method are described for determining an estimated neural response in a hybrid electric acoustic audio prosthesis. Target nerve tissue such as remaining hair cells and cochlear nerve tissue receive synchronized electric and acoustic stimulation signals which are recorded and processed to determine an artifact canceled estimated neural response.
