Abstract
Programming an implant in a patient follows a standardized and individualized protocol. Although this process uses common parameters in most cases, in a percentage of cochlear implant users, for some reason, it is not possible to establish appropriate levels of stimulation. In these patients, the audiologist has to make adjustments in some parameters, such as a change in the strategy, stimulation rate, pulse width, in order to obtain the expected performance.
