Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1976
Cochlear implants seem to be the first long step in the search for a mechanical prosthesis that would restore hearing to the profoundly deaf. While present developments with implants appear to have been successful in providing deafened individuals with a reasonably wide range of information, the ultimate goal, the full comprehension of discriminable ...

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1986
Cochlear implants are an appropriate alternative for selected deaf children and adults who do not benefit from conventional amplification. Improvements have been documented in speech perception and speech production skills. Multichannel systems, which provide spectral information in addition to temporal and intensity cues, have demonstrated performance

Cochlear implant is the first approved cranial nerve stimulator that works by directly stimulating the cochlear nerve. The medical and societal impact of this revolutionary device cannot be understated. This article reviews the evolving indications for cochlear implant, patient assessment, surgical approach, and outcomes for pediatric and adult ...

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,

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1999
After studying this article, the participant should be able to: 1. Define an alloplastic material and know the differences between an alloplast and other types of implants available for surgical use. 2. Determine the biologic response to alloplastic implantation and the material and host characteristics that contribute to long-term reconstruction ...

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.
