Cochlear Implants: Auditory Prostheses and Electric Hearing: Springer Handbook of Auditory Research, cartea 20

Editat de Fan-Gang Zeng, Richard R. Fay
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 apr 2004
Cochlear implants have instigated a popular but controversial revolution in the treatment of deafness. This book discusses the physiological bases of using artificial devices to electrically stimulate the brain to interpret sounds. As the first successful device to restore neural function, the cochlear implant serves as a model for research in neuroscience and biomedical engineering. These and other auditory prostheses are discussed in the context of historical treatments, engineering, psychophysics and clinical issues as well as implications for speech, behavior, cognition and long-term effects on people.

Cochlear implants have instigated a popular but controversial revolution in the treatment of deafness. This book discusses the physiological bases of using artificial devices to electrically stimulate the auditory system to interpret sounds. As the first successful device to restore neural function, the cochlear implant has served as a model for research in neuroscience and biomedical engineering. Implants and other auditory prostheses are discussed in the context of historical treatment, engineering, psychophysics, and clinical issues as well as their implications for speech, cognition, behavior, and the long-term effects on recipients

Caracteristici

Auditory prostheses have been used successfully to partially restore hearing in more than 60,000 hearing-impaired people worldwide. This volume focuses on cochlear implants, but also discusses the design principles and performance data for other types of auditory prostheses.
