Cochlear Implants |
|
Cochlear implants are surgically implanted into a person's inner ear. External components are either body-worn or behind the ear. The external component sends signals to the implant through the skin, which are then recognized as sound by the brain instantaneously. The process sends sound in the ear through nerve stimulation by avoiding damaged cells and by using an electrical signal.
Cochlear implant recipients must have severe or profound sensorineural hearing loss in both ears to receive cochlear implants.
