    The auditory brainstem response in hearing and deaf cats evoked by intracochlear electrical stimulation
    Black, R. C. ; Clark, Graeme M. ; O'Leary, S. J. ; Walters, C. (Monash University Press, 1983)
    This study was performed to investigate in detail the auditory brainstem response (ABR) for intracochlear electrical stimulation. Brainstem response audiometry is a simple, noninvasive procedure with the responses under many stimulus conditions being readily understood in terms of single auditory nerve discharge properties. The amplitude and latency behaviour of the Nl brainstem response correlates well with that recorded directly from the auditory nerve (Huang & Buchwald, 1978). In addition, the brainstem response can be divided into frequency-specific components corresponding to tonotopical locations in the cochlea, as exhibited in the method of derived responses (e.g. Parker &Thornton, 1978). It is therefore well suited to both physiological and clinical investigation of auditory function and therefore should be useful in evaluating auditory function under conditions of electrical stimulation of the cochlea.

    Electrical stimulation of the human cochlea: psychophysical and speech studies
    Clark, Graeme M. (Plenum Publishing Corporation, 1981)
    This report describes psychophysical and speech studies conducted on two of our post-lingually deaf patients implanted with the nature of the hearing sensations produced by the individual electrodes, and to investigate the feasibility of the transmission of speech information to higher centres by means of cadences of stimulation using on electrode at a time. Two totally deaf patients (MC1 and MC2) participated in these studies.
