An electronic device for multichannel cochlear implant is now available in case of total deafness and deaf-muteness. Any surgical technic of electrodes implantation may use this prosthesis. It consists in two parts, an outside package and an implanted receptor. The external device cut the sound in eight channels, whose frequencies correspond to those of the telephon bands. These eight sinusoidal waves are changed in pulses whose frequency and duration depend on the intensity of the initial signal. All these informations are multiplexed and injected in a high frequency wave to an antenna. Electromagnetic induction supplies through the skin the implanted receptor with power and informations. This receptor is preoperatively connected to the electrodes. With this device and with phoniatric training some speech recognition, and in case of deaf-mute patients voice improvement, may be obtained in some months.
