Current Biology, 2014 Cochlear implants are the first example of a neural prosthesis that can substitute a sensory organ: they bypass the malfunctioning auditory periphery of profoundly-deaf people to electrically stimulate their auditory nerve. The history of cochlear implants dates back to 1957, when Djourno and Eyriès managed, for the first time, to elicit sound ...

Biomaterials in cochlear implants [PDF]
Laryngo- rhino- otologie, 2009 The cochlear implant (CI) represents, for almost 25 years now, the gold standard in the treatment of children born deaf and for postlingually deafened adults. These devices thus constitute the greatest success story in the field of ‘neurobionic’ prostheses.

Cochlear Implants in Patients with Fluctuant or Progressive Hearing Loss on the Better Ear
International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2021 Introduction Cochlear implants have been proposed for cases of unilateral hearing loss, especially in patients with tinnitus impairment. Several studies have shown that they result in definite improvement of sound localization and speech understanding ...

Prevalence of Contralateral Hearing Aid Use in Adults with Cochlear Implants
International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2013 Introduction The exclusive use of a cochlear implant (CI) in one ear allows patients to effectively hear speech in a quiet environment. However, in environments with competing noise, the processing of multiple sounds becomes complex.

Two SOX11 variants cause Coffin–Siris syndrome with a new feature of sensorineural hearing loss
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 1, Page 183-189, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Coffin‐Siris syndrome (CSS, OMIM#135900) is a rare congenital disorder associated with neurodevelopmental and dysmorphic features. The primary cause of CSS is pathogenic variants in any of 9 BAF chromatin‐remodeling complex encoding genes or the genes SOX11 and PHF6. Herein, we performed whole‐exome sequencing (WES) and a series of analyses of

The UmboMic: A PVDF Cantilever Microphone [PDF]
, 2023 Objective: We present the "UmboMic," a prototype piezoelectric cantilever microphone designed for future use with totally-implantable cochlear implants. Methods: The UmboMic sensor is made from polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) because of its low Young's modulus and biocompatibility. The sensor is designed to fit in the middle ear and measure the motion

Increased Resting-State Positron Emission Tomography Activity After Cochlear Implantation in Adult Deafened Cats [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2023 Objectives. Cochlear implants are widely used for hearing rehabilitation in patients with profound sensorineural hearing loss. However, Cochlear implants have variable results, and central neural plasticity is considered to be a reason for this ...
