Speech Processing for Cochlear Implant Prostheses
Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1984The transformation of speech into electrical signals which can stimulate the auditory nerve in order to create hearing sensations that carry speech information depends on many factors. These include the limitations imposed by the current state-of-the-art in otological surgery, mieroelectronic and micromechanical technology, and knowledge of the ...

Electrically Driven Implantable Prostheses [PDF]
, 1986 The electrochemical and electrical nature of muscular and biological reactions has been known for centuries. The work of Galvani in the eighteenth century in his famous frog leg experiment as a Professor of Anatomy at Padua University, led to Volta’s experiments and epochal discovery of the production of electricity by electrochemical reactions ...

The idea of recovering lost body functions by using available materials and technologies is documented even in antiquity. The ancient Egyptians used linen saturated with rubber as wound dressings, the Aztec civilisation used gold in dental fillings, Romans had urological catheters, while the first prosthetic hands, feet and legs appeared during the ...

Neurophysiological Requirements for Implanted Cochlear Prostheses
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1979In a few introductory remarks the technological, neurophysiological and clinical assessments of new developments in modern, highly sophisticated hearing aids are reviewed. The necessity of preprocessing auditory information is discussed as well as the problems related to the choice of suitable electrodes, and, in particular, how much auditory ...

Complicated Implantations of Inflatable Penile Prostheses
Urologic Clinics of North America, 1987In conclusion, implantation of an inflatable penile prosthesis into a normal penis is usually a relatively uncomplicated procedure, but the urologist should be aware of the possibility of complications described in this article. He must be familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of the various prostheses and the surgical techniques required to ...
