Summary:Ineraid is a multichannel intracochlear implant of recent design that can provide high levels of speech recognition to totally deaf patients. We chose this device when it became available in 1985 because of our clinical and research interests. We had no commercial ties and could therefore critically assess the value of this implant in an array of patients, including congenital deafness, ossified cochleas and perilingual children.
