Abstract
A method of placing a stapedius activity sensor in a stapedius muscle of a patient is described. The stapedius muscle has a tendon end connecting to the stapes bone, and an opposing muscle belly end where the facial nerve innervates the stapedius muscle. A mastoidectomy is performed to create an opening through mastoid bone of the patient. A lead groove is drilled in temporal bone of the patient following a route along the facial nerve to the muscle belly end of the stapedius muscle. The stapedius activity sensor is then introduced along the lead groove to insert a distal end of the stapedius activity sensor into the muscle belly end of the stapedius muscle.
