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 ...

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2001
The experience of 6 million Norplant users has led to several more advanced implants. Implanon is a single-rod implant system containing a low androgenic progestin and requires 1 to 2 minutes for insertion and removal. Like other implants, Implanon prevents pregnancy by changing the character of the cervical mucus and interfering with luteal function ...

Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 1994
An implantable sustained release device has been developed to treat chronic disorders of the eye. The device, consisting of a central core of drug encased in layers of permeable and impermeable polymers, can be implanted subconjunctivally or intravitreally. This technique was used to develop a ganciclovir device which, when implanted into the vitreous,

Hand Clinics, 1986
Infection has not been considered in this article with each individual implant. The incidence is low indeed. In the only publication concerned primarily with the topic of infection following silicone implant surgery, Millender et al. reviewed 2105 implants of varying kinds. There were ten infections, seven of which were with Staphylococcus aureus.

Implantation d’un défibrillateur implantable
2012Le but n’est pas de detailler la procedure d’implantation, les facons de faire, les tours de main, les astuces, etc. Il s’agit simplement de rappeler les differents temps essentiels de l’implantation, ce qui permettra aux non-operateurs d’expliquer au patient la procedure dans le detail, et pour le medecin de ne rien oublier d’essentiel.
