متن کاملInterfacing FM Systems with Implantable Hearing Devices
Cochlear implant recipients can reduce the challenges they encounter in noisy environments through the use of a remote microphone. Although there are numerous options for delivering the signal from the frequency modulated (FM) transmitter worn by the speaker to the FM receiver coupled to the implant, several have now been verified through research as viable, beneficial arrangements.

متن کاملCochlear Implants, Osseointegrated Bone Conduction Hearing Devices, and Other Implantable Devices
The cochlear implant is an electronic prosthesis that stimulates cells of the auditory spiral ganglion to provide a sense of sound to persons with hearing impairment. Although many thousands of patients have now been implanted, these represent only a fraction of the hearing-impaired individuals worldwide who would potentially benefit from implantation but do not have access to one because of fa...
متن کاملImplantable Cardiac Devices
Electrical cardiac pacing for the management of bradyarrhythmias was first described in 1952, and permanent transvenous pacing devices were introduced into clinical practice in the early 1960s. The first devices for endocardial defibrillation were implanted in surviving victims of sudden cardiac death in 1980.
