Ear and Hearing, 1983
In recent years, the House single-electrode cochlear implant has proven to be a clinically feasible prosthesis for profoundly deaf adults. Based on these findings, the decision was made to begin implanting those children who could not benefit from hearing aids.

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1999
AbstractAll patients in the Birmingham Cochlear Implant Programme underwent computerized tomography (CT) scanning and were assessed and images interpreted by the main author. Of the first 100 cases, 20 were considered to have abnormalities of the inner ears by CT imaging.

Otology & Neurotology, 2008
A cochlear implant is a prosthetic device that activates the auditory nerve directly with electrical pulses to recreate hearing in hearing-impaired individuals. Although the device cannot recreate the complex patterns of neural activation of a normal ear, people with cochlear implants can understand speech well, with a typical patient in 2005 able to ...

Cochlear implantation in Thailand
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1999AbstractThis article evaluates and compares the benefits of a House/3M single channel cochlear implant or a Nucleus 22-channel cochlear implant on speech recognition in Thai-speaking patients. From 1986–1989, four profoundly deaf adults were implanted with the House/3M prosthesis. Since 1994, nine post-lingually deaf adults and three pre-lingually deaf

The Totally Implantable Cochlear Implant
Ear & Hearing, 2007The concept of a totally implantable cochlear implant (TICI) offers the following advantages over the present generation of semi-implantable cochlear implants. These advantages include (1) cosmetics: deafness can be "hidden," because there is no external hardware during use; (2) no external hardware (e.g., cables, speech processor) to fail or be ...

Cochlear implantation in children
Auris Nasus Larynx, 2010Cochlear implantation has revolutionized the treatment and prognosis of children with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss who receive limited benefits from hearing aids. Children who receive cochlear implantation at young age, in particular before 2 years of age, can be expected to reach their normal age-equivalent developmental milestones ...

Publisher Summary A cochlear implant system is an electrical stimulator that discharges electrical current to spiral ganglia, giving rise to action potentials in the auditory nerve fibers. It is also a medical instrument that can measure intracochlear evoked potentials, electrical field potentials generated by the electrodes, and electrode impedance ...

The future of cochlear implantation
Cochlear Implants International, 2003Safety has become an important issue, with the need to minimize the risk of transmitting infection to the cerebrospinal fluid. Hand-made electrode arrays are expensive and slow to make. Machine-made arrays have already been developed in Canada, and comparable techniques will, no doubt, arrive.

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2003
Cochlear implantation is recognized as a valuable intervention with important implications for the acquisition of speech perception and verbal language in children with severe to profound hearing impairment. Auditory rehabilitation, language intervention, and close coordination between parents, schools, and the implant center are necessary to maximize ...

Bilateral Cochlear Implantation
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2012Cochlear implantation (CI) is the standard of care for the treatment of children and adults with bilateral severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss. Because the ultimate and continuous goal of CI teams is to improve patient performance, a potential method is bilateral CI.
