We made our semi-annual visit to the Audiologist this week.
Lily was tested in the sound booth first. Left/Rt ear thresholds (quietest electric stimulation she could recognize) at 250 Hz 25dB/10dB, 500 Hz 15db/10db, 1000 Hz 15db/15db, 2000 Hz 30db/25db, 4000 Hz 15db/10db, 6000 Hz 30db/25db.
Then they plug her in to the computer and adjust the map (software on her CIs). Lily saw the cord and said, "Look, I have a leash." Every electrode was tested on both sides. Those around the 2000 Hz and 6000 Hz were adjusted up to see if we could improve Lily's thresholds in those frequencies. The rest were working well and only slightly adjusted.
They also did a Nu-Chips test which is a open-set word recognition/repetition test (R: 24/25 and L: 24/25) and a TAC Subtest 6 where she had to remember four critical elements and then match it to a picture (14/15).
Conclusion - Lily continues to do very well!
