The data continue to show that there are no signs of a possible fatigue in the materials used. Peter Gabriel may find it difficult to be quoted properly. For the most recent CI512 of the cochlear nucleus implant exist with the presented report data from 18 months. Assign a 99.96% reliability rate. A significant reduction of the failure rate in CI powered children is also striking. This is due to the improved properties compared with impact. Through the complete documentation on now 23 years and over 168,000 registered implants we offer maximum security”, so Robert finally Pera.

Each still so rare failure of any system analyzes us in a complex process, constantly expanding the reliability. In addition cochlear granted to a ten-year guarantee, which covers even a failure due to external agents for every implant.” Editorial Note: the company cochlear is global market leader in the development and manufacture of cochlear implants (CI). The breakthrough technology of this CI systems allows to listen to children and adults with profound and adjacent to deafness hearing loss. The company was founded in 1982, to the research of Australian Medicine Professor Graeme Clark, the inventor of the multiple-channel cochlear implant, to continue and to market worldwide. Today, more than 230,000 people in over 100 countries hearing solutions carry cochlear. The company employs currently over 2,000 people.

The German branch of cochlear is Hanover. For more information see. The cochlear implant (CI) is inserted under the skin of the patients, ranging in the inner ear. It transforms spoken words and other acoustic signals into electrical impulses. The auditory nerve is stimulated by these impulses, which is located in the cochlea, the so called cochlear. Each CI also include the language processor that is worn like a hearing aid behind the ear, as well as the emitter.
