Exposure to vibrotactile music improves audiometric performances in individuals with cochlear implants
30/06/2025 - Vibrotactile stimulation has been shown to enhance the music listening experience of cochlear implant (CI) users. However, while existing studies have focused on music perception, significant gaps...
Outcomes and prognostic factors in prelingually sensorineural deaf children with cerebral white matter lesions following cochlear implantation: a multicenter, retrospective study
15/05/2025 - This study aims to investigate the impact of cerebral white matter lesions (CWMLs) on auditory, speech, and non-verbal cognitive (NVC) outcomes following cochlear implantation (CI) in children...
A case series shows a relation between intracochlear electric field distribution and vestibular co-stimulation with cochlear implants
15/05/2025 - El objetivo de este estudio fue investigar la relación entre la distribución del campo eléctrico...
A full-custom fully implantable cochlear implant system validated in vivo with an animal model
10/10/2024 - Realizations of fully implantable cochlear implants (FICIs) for providing adequate solution to esthetic concerns and frequent battery replacement have lacked of addressing system level criteria as...
Development and Evaluation of a Reusable, Force Measuring Tool for the Robot-Assisted Insertion of Cochlear Implant Electrode Arrays
30/07/2024 - Objective: Limitations in human kinematics during cochlear implantation induce pressure transients and increased forces on intracochlear structures. Herein, we present a novel head-mounted...
The comparison of white-to-white via triple person-times caliper measuring and machine-measuring in V4c implantable collamer lens implantation
12/07/2024 - This study aimed to compare the differences and characteristics of white-to-white (WTW) values obtained before V4c implantation using triple person-times caliper, IOL-Master 700, Pentacam HR, and...
Understanding the impact of modiolus porosity on stimulation of spiral ganglion neurons by cochlear implants
29/04/2024 - Moderate-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss in humans is treatable by electrically stimulating the auditory nerve (AN) with a cochlear implant (CI). In the cochlea, the modiolus presents a...
A Robotic System Integrated With CBCT for Cochlear Implant Surgery: Accuracy Improvement and Validation
09/04/2024 - In robot-assisted cochlear implantation (CI), the drilling accuracy of a tunnel for electrode array (EA) insertion is critical to the success of the surgery. Currently, robots for tunnel drilling...
Automatic data-driven design and 3D printing of custom ocular prostheses
04/03/2024 - Millions of people require custom ocular prostheses due to eye loss or congenital defects. The current fully manual manufacturing processes used by highly skilled ocularists are time-consuming...
Predicting Cochlear Implant Electrode Placement Using Monopolar, Three-Point and Four-Point Impedance Measurements
17/02/2022 - Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between cochlear implant (CI) electrode distances to the cochleas inner wall (the modiolus) and electrical impedance measurements made...
Real-Time Localization of Cochlear-Implant Electrode Arrays Using Bipolar Impedance Sensing
08/09/2021 - Objective: Surgeons have no direct objective feedback on cochlear-implant electrode array (EA) positioning during insertion, yet optimal hearing outcomes are contingent on placing the EA as close...
Speech Perception With Novel Stimulation Strategies for CombinedCochleo-Vestibular Systems
01/09/2021 - Cochlear implants are very well established in the rehabilitation of hearing loss and are regarded as the most successful neuroprostheses to date. While a lot of progress has also been made in the...
