Background/objective: Hearing Preservation(HP) in the context of cochlear implantation(CI) is indicative of atraumatic insertion and could potentially offer a clinical advantage to performance. However, if residual hearing is lost due to surgical trauma or from natural deterioration, HP that was achieved from the insertion of a short electrode would then compromise any future performance that would have been obtained through a full length implant. Our goal was to determine the degree of HP after implantation with a full-length electrode (the FLEXsoft).
