Implantable hearing devices have been developed to address the shortcomings of traditional hearing aids. Currently, there are two US Food and Drug Administration clinical trials evaluating fully implantable hearing devices.Implantable hearing devices attempt to improve upon stigma, cosmesis, occlusion effect, and feedback, as well as other factors that

Sterilisation of implantable devices
Clinical Materials, 1994The pathogenesis and rates of infection associated with the use of a wide variety of implantable devices are described. The multi-factorial nature of post-operative periprosthetic infection is outlined and the role of sterilisation of devices is explained.

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2008
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) accounts for two-thirds of fatal events related to heart disease. Coronary heart disease and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy are the most common causes of SCD. Data from major randomized trials have consistently shown that therapy with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) results in a significant and meaningful effect ...

History of Implantable Devices
IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 1991The history of biomedical implantable devices is traced from its beginning in the late 1950s to its status today. The role of industry in making this development possible is highlighted. Special emphasis is placed on the early history of the implantable cardiac pacemaker, the first implantable, electronic biomedical device.

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 1977
The major problems of implanted percutaneous devices include biocompatibility and infection. Experience with 127 implants in 43 patients and volunteers of Rancho Los Amigos Hospital is presented and shows that if mechanical forces are reduced to a minimum, prolonged success of these implants can be expected.

An implantable incontinence device
Journal of Biomechanics, 1971Abstract The shortcomings of previous electronic and surgical prosthetic devices in restoration of urinary incontinence have led to the development of an alternative treatment technique. A device is herein described that is comprised of an inflatable cuff to occlude an encircled urethra and a totally implanted yet externally controllable hydraulic ...

Devices and implants are encountered daily by cardiac imagers. Knowledge of the expected normal appearance and function of each device facilitates detection of complications. Devices are usually seen on CT images, but their true three-dimensional appearance, course, and function may not be apparent because of beam hardening and streak artifacts. Review
