The Impact of Age and Duration of Cochlear Implant in a Congenital Deaf Population: An ERP Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objective: It is well known that patients with Cochlear Implant (CI) have a large inter-individual variability in linguistic and auditory performances. This can be related to individual auditory processing abilities and integrity of auditory system from ...

Energy-efficient waveform for electrical stimulation of the cochlear nerve

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The cochlear implant (CI) is the most successful neural prosthesis, restoring the sensation of sound in people with severe-to-profound hearing loss by electrically stimulating the cochlear nerve.

Chronic Conductive Hearing Loss Leads to Cochlear Degeneration. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Synapses between cochlear nerve terminals and hair cells are the most vulnerable elements in the inner ear in both noise-induced and age-related hearing loss, and this neuropathy is exacerbated in the absence of efferent feedback from the olivocochlear ...

A ratchet mechanism for amplification in low-frequency mammalian hearing

open access: yes, 2010
The sensitivity and frequency selectivity of hearing result from tuned amplification by an active process in the mechanoreceptive hair cells. In most vertebrates the active process stems from the active motility of hair bundles.

Restoring Hearing After Resection of Vestibular Schwannoma by Cochlear Nerve Preservation and Cochlear Implantation: Long-Term Follow-Up of Two Cases

open access: yesB-ENT
Hearing outcomes of two cases of growing sporadic vestibular schwannoma, resected via a translabyrinthine approach with simultaneous cochlear implantation are reported.

Mechanisms of sensorineural cell damage, death and survival in the cochlea. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The majority of acquired hearing loss, including presbycusis, is caused by irreversible damage to the sensorineural tissues of the cochlea. This article reviews the intracellular mechanisms that contribute to sensorineural damage in the cochlea, as well ...

Degeneration in the cochlear nerve of the rat following cochlear lesions

open access: yesBrain Research, 1988
Left unilateral cochlear lesions were performed on 26 albino rats at 1.5 months of age. After survival times ranging from 1 h to 6 months, the animals were perfused via the aorta with mixed aldehydes. Blocks including the cochlear nerves were removed, embedded in Araldite, sectioned in a plane transverse to the longitudinal axis of the nerve, and ...

Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Intracochlear Auditory Nerve Monitoring and Cochlear Implantation After Total Resection of a Vestibular Schwannoma: Case Report

open access: yesB-ENT
The aim is to present a case of cochlear implantation (CI) after vestibular schwannoma (VS) resection and intracochlear auditory nerve monitoring. The case of a 53-year-old man with left-sided iatrogenic dehiscence of the posterior semicircular canal ...

The role for cochlear implants in microtia and congenital aural atresia: A case report and a review of literature

open access: yesProceedings of Singapore Healthcare, 2023
Sensorineural hearing loss resulting from microtia and aural atresia is rare due to different embryologic origins of the external and inner ear. Consequently, cochlear implants are seldom performed in patients with microtia and/or aural atresia.
