A time\u2010to\u2010event model was used to identify the stabilization onset along electrode regions and overall impedance. A comparison of stabilization times was also performed between classical activation (1\u2010month post\u2010surgery, CA) and early activation (1\u2010day post\u2010surgery, EA).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A cohort of 395 cochleae (225 with CA and 170 with EA) was analyzed. The EA group demonstrated significantly shorter overall impedance stabilization onset (2.8\u2009months) than the CA group (5.0\u2009months). Stabilization onset was also faster for EA group across apical, middle, and basal electrodes (3.1, 3.0, and 3.2\u2009months) compared to CA (5.4, 5.0, and 4.7\u2009months). At stabilization onset, impedance values were lower, though not statistically significant, along the electrode regions in the EA group (7.98, 5.43, 5.84\u2009k\u03a9) than in CA (8.25, 5.65, 6.07\u2009k\u03a9). The difference in EI between the stabilization onset and the last recorded time after the 5\u2010year follow\u2010up was minimal in both groups, showing a long\u2010term stabilization.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The proposed model effectively evaluated impedance stabilization onset timing and values.
