The choice of a cochlear implant electrode carrier for the individual patient is influenced by
cochlear size, as this parameter has an impact on the risk of scala dislocations. Therefore …

Introduction Optical stimulation has been suggested for neural stimulation to improve
cochlear implants. Light allows for more spatially selective activation of neuron populations …

Robot-assisted cochlear implant (CI) surgery is a new research area that emerged in the last
decade. The goal of robotic assistance is to improve patient hearing outcomes through …

Abstract Objectives/Hypothesis: To investigate the influence of alterations of the scala
tympani environment and modifications of the surface of cochlear implant electrode arrays …

Sensorineurale Hörstörungen können mit einem Cochlea-Implantat behandelt werden.
Dazu wird ein Elektrodenträger (ET) vom Chirurgen in die Cochlea inseriert, um dort die …

Magnetic cochlear implant surgery requires removal of a magnet via a heating process after
implant insertion, which may cause thermal trauma within the ear. Intra-cochlear heat …

In traditional cochlear implant surgery, physical trauma may occur during electrode array
insertion. Magnetic guidance of the electrode array has been proposed to mitigate this …

To evaluate and compare the effect of intra-scalar methylprednisolone and sodium
hyaluronate on cochlear implants' impedance and electrically evoked compound action …

This chapter provides a brief history and description of the cochlear implant, which is
considered one of the most successful neural prostheses to date. Although the cochlear …

Einführung Eine möglichst atraumatische Insertion der CI-Elektrode ist für den Erhalt der
cochleären Neuroanatomie und somit für den Restgehörerhalt und das audiologische …
