Electrical Characteristics

Description:

The CS-10A is the first cochlear implant released by Nurotron.

The raw materials of the implants are all from the United States, comply with FDA standards, have good reliability and biocompatibility, and reduce risk of infection.

Nurotron's implants can resistant against external impact up to 2.5 joules, and helium leakage standards are 50 times stricter than international standards.

Removable magnet, more suitable for different level of MRI scans, to ensure the best imaging outcome.

CS-10A has four types of electrode arrays, standard electrode, slim short electrode, slim medium electrode and slim long electrode, with lengths of 16.0mm, 20.5mm and 24.0mm respectively. Different sizes and lengths of electrode arrays provide customization for various types of cochleas.

Except for the TS electrode, which has 22 channels, the other electrodes have 24 channels. More channels can help recipients closest to natural hearing.

The standard electrode has a apical end diameter of 0.5mm and a basal end diameter of 0.9mm. The apical end diameter of the slim electrode is 0.3mm and basal end diameter is 0.8mm. It is moderately soft and hard and is indicated for round window, extended round window and cochleostomy surgical approaches. This is designed by Professor Stephen J Rebscher, the world's top electrode expert. This design not only minimize the occurrence of vertical deviation into the scala media or scala vestibuli, it can also reduce damage to the fine structure of the cochlea and preserve the residual hearing of the recipient.

The implant is available in monopolar, bipolar or common ground stimulation modes, designed for flexible programming options.

Telemetry functions available with the implant include NRM, ESRT, ABR, CEP and intraoperative NRM.
