Following the experience with nearly 150 patients with the Nucleus cochlear implant, a more sophisticated and lighter speech processor was tested successfully in terms of better speech understanding. In order to prepare further miniaturization, the standard bipolar stimulation mode was compared with an unipolar mode. It was found that unipolar stimulation needs less energy, without decreasing speech understanding. Preconditions for supplying very young children with a cochlear implant were the use of electrically elicited stapedius reflex thresholds, obtained intraoperatively, for the fitting of the speech processor and the setup of a special rehabilitation center, where children together with their mothers could be trained in hearing and understanding by special teachers and engineers for 12 weeks, distributed over the 1st postoperative year.
