Multicenter clinical trial of the Nucleus Hybrid S8 cochlear implant: Final outcomes.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The concept of expanding electrical speech processing to those with more residual acoustic hearing with a less-invasive shorter cochlear implant (CI) has been ongoing since 1999. A multicenter study of the Nucleus Hybrid S8 CI took place between 2002 and 2011. This report describes the final outcomes of this clinical trial. STUDY DESIGN Multicenter, longitudinal, single-...

متن کاملThe Nucleus 22-channel cochlear implant system.
Cochlear implants have become the treatment of choice for profoundly deaf adults and children who obtain little or no benefit from conventional amplification. Sounds are translated into small electric currents that stimulate the auditory nerves in the cochlea and generate hearing sensations. The Nucleus cochlear implant is the result of more than 20 yr of research and development, first at the ...
متن کاملNucleus 22-channel cochlear implant: preliminary observations.
A carefully designed study was undertaken in 1982 to evaluate the performance of individuals who received the Nucleus 22-channel cochlear implant. All patients were profound-totally deaf, adults with a postlingual onset of impairment. The preoperative evaluation, prosthesis fitting, training, and postoperative testing were consistent across clinics. Single-subject studies, where each patient ac...
