What Is a Cochlear Implant?
A cochlear implant is a surgically implanted electronic device that bypasses damaged parts of the inner ear to directly stimulate the auditory nerve. Unlike hearing aids that amplify sounds, cochlear implants provide a sense of sound to individuals with significant hearing loss
The implant system includes:
- External Processor: Captures sound and transmits signals
- Internal Implant: Converts signals into electrical impulses that stimulate the auditory nerve

The patient is usually discharged within 1-3 days from the surgery.
The Cochlear Implant is usually switched-on 14 days after the procedure. The sutures are removed and the external Sound Processor is mapped to the patient’s hearing loss. The patient starts hearing sounds immediately, however, intelligibility of this sound takes time and consistent rehabilitation.
Smaller and less visible off-the-ear sound processors, rather than behind-the-ear (BTE) sound processors can be hidden in the hair of a patient.
Kanso by Cochlear, or Rondo by MED-EL are two such variants available in the market.
