22 Mar 1996TL;DR: In this paper, a cochlear implant system includes a housing containing stimulating pulse generating circuitry, and a plurality of electrodes external of the housing and receiving the pulses, and multi-position switches are provided which selectively couple the electrodes to resistors selected to dissipate the voltages at a preselected maximum current.
Abstract: An implanted device such as a cochlear implant system includes a housing containing stimulating pulse generating circuitry, and a plurality of electrodes external of the housing and receiving the pulses. Between the pulses, parasitic voltages may build up between the electrodes. In order to control the inrush current due to these parasitic voltages, multi-position switches are provided which selectively couple the electrodes to resistors selected to dissipate the voltages at a preselected maximum current to protect the body organs.

TL;DR: The original audio mix in real-world music might not be suitable for cochlear implant recipients, so modifying the relative instrument level settings potentially improves music enjoyment.
Abstract: Objective: Music perception and appraisal are generally poor in cochlear implant recipients. Simple musical structures, lyrics that are easy to follow, and clear rhythm/beat have been reported among the top factors to enhance music enjoyment. The present study investigated the preference for modified relative instrument levels in music with normal-hearing and cochlear implant subjects. Design: In experiment 1, test subjects were given a mixing console and multi-track recordings to determine their most enjoyable audio mix. In experiment 2, a preference rating experiment based on the preferred relative level settings in experiment 1 was performed. Study sample: Experiment 1 was performed with four postlingually deafened cochlear implant subjects, experiment 2 with ten normal-hearing and ten cochlear implant subjects. Results: A significant difference in preference rating was found between normal-hearing and cochlear implant subjects. The latter preferred an audio mix with larger vocals-to-instrument...

28 Oct 2011TL;DR: A communication system for an active implantable medical device as discussed by the authors includes an isolation transformer a coil coupled to the isolation transformer, and first and second communication components each coupled to a transformer such that the first two communication components are electrically isolated from the coil.
Abstract: A communication system for an active implantable medical device. The communication system includes an isolation transformer a coil coupled to the isolation transformer, and first and second communication components each coupled to the isolation transformer such that the first and second communication components are electrically isolated from the coil, and such that the isolation transformer enables the first and second communication components to communicate, via magnetic induction (MI) using the coil, with at least one external component.

TL;DR: The majority of hearing impaired children in Denmark received hearing aids before six months of hearing and the majority was implanted before 18 months of age, and the vast majority did not have age equivalent language understanding and vocabulary.

TL;DR: The prevalence of vestibular dysfunction in children with unilateral deafness is high and similar to that of children with bilateral deafness, and the functional impact of combined vestibulo-cochlear sensory deficits considered.
