Abstract

Damage or malformation of the cochlea or the delicate structures within the cochlea causes sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Sensory hearing impairment cannot be rectified surgically, but many sensory losses can be helped with conventional acoustic hearing aids. In the profoundly deaf child where there is little residual hearing, acoustic amplification will not give significant benefit. Cochlear implant systems electrically stimulate remaining auditory nerve tissue in the cochlea to induce a sensation of hearing.
