Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems and methods for a closed-loop cochlear implant. The closed-loop cochlear implant can use at least one extra-cochlear electrode for monitoring auditory evoked potentials from the peripheral and central auditory pathway and stimulating to optimize speech processing. The closed-loop cochlear implant can further use at least one intra-cochlear electrode to stimulate the auditory nerve. Additionally, in some embodiments, the closed-loop cochlear implant can be used to monitor biosignals, such as EMG and ECG. |
