Govaerts,Kevin Green,Alexander M.

TL;DR: Relaxed patient selection criteria, improved clinical management of hearing loss, modifications of surgical practice, and improved devices may explain the differences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-, Per- and Postoperative Factors Affecting Performance of Postlinguistically Deaf Adults Using Cochlear Implants: A New Conceptual Model over Time
Diane S. Lazard,Christophe Vincent,Frédéric Venail,Paul Van de Heyning,Eric Truy,Olivier Sterkers,Piotr H. Skarzynski,Henryk Skarżyński,Karen Schauwers,Stephen O'Leary,Deborah Mawman,Bert Maat,Andrea Kleine-Punte,Alexander M. Huber,Kevin Green,Paul J. Govaerts,Bernard Fraysse,Richard C. Dowell,Norbert Dillier,Elaine Burke,Andy J. Beynon,François Bergeron,Deniz Başkent,Françoise Artières,Peter J. Blamey,Peter J. Blamey +25 more
TL;DR: A new model of predicted auditory performance with a CI as a function of the significant factors was designed showing a decrease of performance that started during the period of mHL, and became faster during theperiod of pHL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polypyrrole-coated electrodes for the delivery of charge and neurotrophins to cochlear neurons
Rachael T. Richardson,Andrew K. Wise,Brianna C. Thompson,Brianna O. Flynn,Patrick J. Atkinson,Nicole J Fretwell,James B Fallon,Gordon G. Wallace,Robert K. Shepherd,Graeme M. Clark,Stephen O'Leary +10 more
TL;DR: Guinea pigs implanted with electrically stimulated Ppy/pTS/NT3-coated electrodes had lower electrically-evoked auditory brainstem response thresholds and greater SGN densities in implanted cochleae compared to non-implanted cochlearae and compared to animals implanted with Ppy-pTS-coating electrodes (p<0.05).
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of polypyrrole with incorporated neurotrophin-3 on the promotion of neurite outgrowth from auditory neurons.

TL;DR: If applied to the cochlear implant, Ppy/pTS/NT3 will provide a biocompatible, low-impedance substrate for storage and release of NT3 to help protect auditory neurons from degradation after sensorineural hearing loss and encourage neurite outgrowth towards the electrodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resprouting and survival of guinea pig cochlear neurons in response to the administration of the neurotrophins brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin-3.
TL;DR: Examination of the morphological effects on auditory neurons following deafening and the administration of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin‐3 showed that neurotrophins were effective in preventing death of auditory neurons if administered 5 days after deafening or in preventing the continued loss of neurons if the administration was delayed by 33 days.
