An electronic device called a cochlear implant is used to enhance hearing. For those who are unable to hear effectively with hearing aids and have significant hearing loss due to inner ear damage, it may be an alternative. A cochlear implant bypasses damaged areas of the ear to transmit sound impulses to the hearing (auditory) nerve, in contrast to hearing aids, which enhance sound. A behind-the-ear sound processor is used with cochlear implants. The receiver is implanted beneath the skin behind the ear to receive the sound waves that the processor has captured. Electrodes inserted in the cochlea, the snail-shaped inner ear, receive signals from the receiver. The auditory nerve receives the impulses and forwards them to the brain. Although the sounds produced by the brain are not exactly like those produced by natural hearing, they are nonetheless sounds. Understanding how to decipher the signals from a cochlear implant requires practice and patience. Most cochlear implant users see significant improvements in speech comprehension within three to six months of starting to use the device.
