The technique can be used in one or two steps for an intraoperative evaluation of the functional effect during ear operation. Using OssiMon LAIOM, we were able to simultaneously measure the auditory steady-state response (ASSR), as well as to perform laser dopler vibrometry (LDV). For electrophysiologic measurements, OssiMon LAIOM uses the Intelligent Hearing System platform, and the Polytec single-point laser to evaluate the ossicular mobility. The measurements can be conducted using both methods at the same time or separately, applying each method independently. The OssiMon LAIOM software records the ASSR response intraoperatively and marks it automatically on the audiogram with the preoperative hearing level. The ossicular vibration level is determined based on the measured LDV response. To the best of our knowledge, OssiMon LAIOM is the first solution allowing to objectively measure the effectiveness of tympanoplasty using two methods simultaneously, i.e. ASSR and LDV. The system could be widely applied in the functional evaluation of the middle ear and in clinical practice.

It can be the result of as many factors as there are many types of organisations and the goals they pursue. However, there are some invariants among them, which include leadership and management style associated with it. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the possible ways of implementing the idea of a turquoise management model in organisations with strong knowledge-based leadership. Materials and methods The subject of the study were medical entities of the SMEs group. A faceto- face and telephone interview with a person holding a leadership role in the treatment unit was chosen as the research method. Results and conclusions An attempt was made to verify the thesis of the possible synergies between turquoise ideas and strong leadership. The paper demonstrates a natural evolution of the leadership model which has ...

Methods: Measurements were performed on 9 cadaveric whole human heads. A commercial scanning laser Doppler vibrometer was used. The promontory displacement was recorded in response to BC stimulation delivered by an implant at 3 sites: BC1 on the squamous part of the temporal bone, BC2 on the ampulla of the lateral semicircular canal, and BC3 between the semicircular canals. The displacement of the promontory was analyzed in detail. Results: The results show that BC1 caused an overall smaller promontory displacement than both sites ...

The objective was to find the best stimulation site that provides the greatest transmission of vibratory energy in a living human and compare it with the results previously obtained in cadavers. Design: The measurements were performed in 4 adult patients referred to our department for vestibular schwannoma removal via translabyrinthine approach. The measurements were performed in the operated site. The cadaver data were obtained in our previous study and here they are reanalyzed for comparison. Promontory displacement was measured using a commercial scanning laser Doppler vibrometer. The laser Doppler vibrometer points located on the promontory were used to analyze the promontory displacement amplitude. Cochlear stimulation was induced with BC stimulation through an...
