Disclosed is an arrangement allowing for automatic calculation of stimulatio n parameters, for example dynamic ranges for stimulation, in an auditory prosthesis, for example a multichannel cochlear implant. The arrangement includes, in a preferred form, an electrode (12) for detecting activity of t he stapedius muscle, and uses the electrode array (5) to sense neural response to stimulation, so that a maximum comfortable stimulation level and threshold level for each channel can be determined. The process may be initiated by th e implantee, avoiding the requirement for external equipment and extensive audiological testing. |
