About Cochlear Implants
A cochlear implant is a surgically-implanted device that helps overcome complications in the inner ear or cochlea. The cochlea is a snail-shaped curled tube which is positioned in the area of the ear where nerves are present. A cochlear implant consists of two major components: An external component and an internal component. The external component includes a microphone, a speech processor (a computer), and a transmitter. The internal component includes a receiver/stimulator, and an electrode array. The sound processor receives sound waves and processes them into detailed digital information. The implant changes the digital information into electrical information, which is sent to the auditory nerve from an electrode array placed inside the cochlea. Candidacy for an implant is based on two primary factors given below:
• Severity of the hearing loss
• Inability of the patient to recognize speech with or without hearing aids
