Cochlear implant prostheses: Strategies and progress
Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 1980Progress in development of elements of higher-generation cochlear implant devices is briefly summarized. Initial tests with early model devices indicate that these devices will gain wide application, as aids capable of effecting significant levels of speech recognition in the profoundly (totally) deaf.
