Overview

CS-20A is Nurotron’s second cochlear implant, specially designed for kids. Building on the industry-leading 24+2 channel electrode design featuring a 0.3mm apical tip from CS-10A, it is even more compact and children-friendly.

• The electrode tip now features a 15-degree curve to better fit the skull structure.
• Closely arranged coils have reduced the size of this implant by 20%, enhancing impact resistance—an improvement over the previous CS-10A model.

CS-20A features an advanced state-of-the-art ASIC chip that enhances the detection of tonal details, improving both communication and music appreciation.

3 lengths of thin electrode arrays (TS, TM, TL) are tailored for CI candidates with diverse ear structures (see more details of electrode design in CS-10A).

In addition to its already excellent features, CS-20A offers the following enhancements to provide you with a more convenient and comfortable hearing experience.

Features

Implant ID

Implant ID is the serial number of your implant. It can be identified clearly by NuroSound, matching speech processor and implant one-to-one, serving as a unique identifier for your personalized cochlear implant.

This way, you will have a secure connection to manage settings and track the performance of the implant, ensuring the best possible hearing experience.

Smaller & More Compact

The size of CS-20A decreased by 20% compared to CS-10A. This reduction shortens impedance measurement time, improves mapping efficiency, and reduces operation time to enhance overall user experience and convenience. And with less bone drilling, it is more suitable for children candidates.

More Impact Resistance

Upgraded on the basis of CS-10A, the titanium alloy shell and closely arranged coils further improve the impact resistance of CS-20A. Nurotron’s implants can be resistant to external impact up to 2.5 joules, and helium leakage standards are 50 times stricter than international standards.

More about CS-20A--Ideal for kids

The CS-20A is perfectly suited for children due to its smaller, more compact design and a slightly curved tip that fits better with a child’s developing skull.

Children’s skulls are small and still growing, making surgery more challenging for doctors. At the same time, as they are in a critical phase of language acquisition and other essential skills, how to help improve their ability to learn is crucial. That’s why we developed the CS-20A—a smaller, safer cochlear implant specifically designed for kids.

The advanced technology and smaller size ensure a safer surgical procedure with less recovery time. In comparison to the CS-10A, the CS-20A has a better effect in these following aspects,  making it an ideal choice for kid’s cochlear implant.

Compact size: The CS-20A is 20% smaller than the CS-10A. Its compact design reduces the need for extensive drilling, minimizing surgical trauma, and facilitating easier implantation, particularly for younger patients with smaller skulls.

Angle more suitable for surgery: The 15-degree angle of the cochlear implant electrode array is designed to conform to the skull, especially important for children as their bone structure is not developed yet.

Due to its upgraded design and higher performance, while the CS-20A cochlear implant is primarily designed for children, it is also an excellent option for adult cochlear implant candidates seeking a reliable and durable cochlear implant solution.
