Constant-current square-wave electrical stimuli were delivered at a 3 Hz stimulation rate with 200 ms pulse duration and varying intensity (Medelec stimulator - Vickers Medical- UK).
Results showed that the loudness balance functions between the apical and basal electrode pairs highly depended on the stimulation rate.
The present study measured the effects of stimulation rate and electrode configuration on loudness growth in six Nucleus-22 cochlear implant users.
To evaluate hearing outcomes and effects of stimulation rate on performance with the Nucleus Freedom cochlear implant (Cochlear Americas, Denver, CO).
In the present study, we investigated an impact of the stimulation rate on the detection of the proarrhythmic potential of 10 reference compounds with effects on different cardiac ion channels in the isolated arterially-perfused rabbit left ventricular wedge preparation.
With a mean stimulation rate of 0.40 Hz and a mean nociceptive stimulation intensity of 1.78 × Threshold, subjects were found to systematically react with a change in PPT, either a decrease or an increase.
Using an oddball task design (e.g., infrequent changes in face identity) faces were presented at a 6 Hz (1 face approximately every 167 ms) stimulation rate and every 1.2 Hz different individual monkey faces were presented.
Loudness balance functions were measured for stimuli that differed in terms of stimulation rate, electrode configuration and electrode location; a 2-alternative, forced-choice adaptive procedure (double-staircase) was used.
For the experiment itself, Kwong borrowed the pair of visual stimulation goggles that Jack Belliveau had used for his early fMRI experiments the goggles on loan from Peter Fox, who had used them in his seminal stimulation rate experiments in the early 1980s.
The EPSPs demonstrated no significant amplitude trends over ensembles of 150-300 responses, at a 2 Hz stimulation rate.
Stimulations acquisitions were 100 per muscle fiber, and stimulation rate was 10 Hz.
