Cochlear Implantation |
|
A
cochlear implant (CI) is a surgically implanted
electronic device that provides a sense of sound to
a person who is profoundly deaf or severely hard of
hearing. Cochlear implants can restore hearing in
patients suffering from deafness due to loss of sensory
hair cells in their cochlea. In those patients, they
can often restore sufficient hearing to allow
unaided understanding of speech in a quiet
background, but the restored, electrical hearing is
much less rich than natural hearing, and offers only
very limited appreciation of musical melody, or
speech understanding in noisy environments. |
