Abstract

An exemplary diagnostic system is configured to direct an acoustic stimulation generator to an acoustic stimulation generator to apply acoustic stimulation having a plurality of stimulus frequencies to a recipient of a cochlear implant during an insertion procedure in which an electrode lead communicatively coupled to the cochlear implant is inserted into a cochlea of the recipient, direct the cochlear implant to use an electrode disposed on the electrode lead to record a plurality of evoked response signals during the insertion procedure, each evoked response signal included in the plurality of evoked response signals corresponding to a different stimulus frequency included in the plurality of stimulus frequencies, and determine, based on an amplitude and a phase of each of one or more evoked response signals included in the plurality of evoked response signals, an insertion state of the electrode lead within the cochlea of the recipient.
