Cochlear Implant

The Cochlear Implant is a hearing improvement device used by completely deaf people who cannot benefit from any other hearing aid. It consists of an electrode that is implanted into the cochlea of ​​the inner ear. Externally, the device is equipped with a microphone and an electronic device that sends the received information to the electrode in the form of waves of a certain frequency. The implant is powered by batteries located on the outside of the device.



Cochlear implants, also known as cochlear implants, are devices used to improve hearing in people who are completely deaf or have severe hearing loss. They are electronic devices that are implanted in the cochlea, or inner ear, and allow people to hear sounds that were previously inaccessible.

The implants work by sending electrical impulses to an electrode that simulates sound in the cochlea. These impulses stimulate hair cells in the cochlea, which respond to sound and transmit information to the brain. The brain then interprets this information and converts it into sound that we hear.

A cochlear implant includes an electrode that is implanted into the cochlea. On the outside, the implant is equipped with a microphone that picks up sounds and transmits them to an electronic device. This device converts sounds into electrical signals and sends them to an electrode.

The cochlear implant is powered by batteries located outside the device. This allows it to be implanted without the need for complex surgery.

Cochlear implants are one of the most effective treatments for deafness. They allow people with complete hearing loss to hear sounds and understand speech. Additionally, these devices can be used to improve hearing in a variety of conditions, such as sensorineural hearing loss or noise-induced deafness.

However, as with any medical device, there are risks and side effects. Some patients may experience discomfort or pain after implantation, and may have problems with wound healing. Additionally, some people may experience problems with the implant's power supply or function.

Despite this, cochlear implants remain one of the most effective methods of improving hearing for people who cannot hear with other hearing aids. They help people communicate, learn and work, and improve their overall quality of life.



**The Cochlear Implant** is an audiology device designed to treat severe hearing loss in people who have natural hearing loss. Sound signals are transmitted from sound sources to the external auditory canal, where they are recorded by one or more microphones. These signals are then transmitted through an amplifier and a small electroacoustic transducer (EAP) implant integrated into the eardrum to the cochlea. The cochlea is used to amplify perceived acoustic signals within the cochlea, creating functional neuroelectric pathways in the cerebral cortex and sound perception. A person with Cochlear can hear and understand speech in a normal background, even in a noisy environment.
