Clinical assistant for cochlear implant care
First Claim
1. A system for performing one or more tests on a hearing prosthesis, the system being usable at least in part by the recipient of the prosthesis, the system comprising:
- a computer that processes software instructions and outputs signals in response to said instructions;
a prosthesis interface means that provides transfer of signals from said computer to the prosthesis and/or from the prosthesis to the computer; and
an interface that allows the recipient of the prosthesis to at least partially control at least some aspect of the tests performed on the prosthesis that is interfaced with the computer.

Abstract
A system for performing one or more tests on a hearing prosthesis is provided. The system is usable by the recipient of the prosthesis, to reduce a testing load on a clinician. The system has a computer that processes software instructions and outputs signals in response to said instructions; a prosthesis interface that provides transfer of signals from the computer to the prosthesis and/or from the prosthesis to the computer; and an interface that allows the recipient of the prosthesis to at least partially control at least some aspect of the tests performed on the prosthesis that is interfaced with the computer.

35. A method of testing a hearing prosthesis, the method comprising:
-
providing a first computer that processes software instructions and outputs signals in response to said instructions;
transferring the signals from the first computer to the prosthesis; and
providing an interface that allows the recipient of the prosthesis to at least partially control at least some aspect of the tests performed on the prosthesis that is interfaced with the first computer.

62. A computer program configured to make a computer perform one or more tests on a hearing prosthesis, the computer program being operable at least in part by the recipient of the hearing prosthesis, the computer program comprising:
-
code for generating instructions to the prosthesis in carrying out a test;
code for transferring the instructions to the prosthesis;
code for implementing an interface that allows the recipient of the prosthesis to at least partially control at least some aspect of the tests performed on the prosthesis.
