Investigation of Balance Function Using Dynamic Posturography under Electrical-Acoustic Stimulation in Cochlear Implant Recipients

Table 1

Algorithms for calculating the individual components of balance (visual, somatosensory, vestibular, and visual preference) and short explanation.

	Comparison	Short explanation for functional relevance
Somatosensory system (SOM)	Quotient	Patient's ability to use input from the somatosensory system to maintain balance
	SOT2/SOT1
Visual system (VIS)	Quotient	Patient's ability to use input from the visual system to maintain balance
	SOT4/SOT1
Vestibular system (VEST)	Quotient	Patient's ability to use input from the vestibular system to maintain balance
	SOT5/SOT1
Visual preference (PREF)	Quotient	The degree to which a patient relies on visual information to maintain balance, even when the information is incorrect.
	SOT3+SOT6/SOT2+SOT5
