Cochlear implants come in various types, tailored to meet the specific needs of patients based on their degree of hearing loss, age, and other factors. The two primary types are:
Remove
<strong>Traditional Cochlear Implants:</strong> <ul><li>These are designed for individuals with severe to profound hearing loss in both ears.</li> <li>They include an external processor worn behind the ear or on the body and an internal electrode array implanted in the cochlea.</li> <li>These implants provide electrical stimulation across a wide range of frequencies, allowing users to perceive speech and environmental sounds.</li></ul>
Remove
<strong>Hybrid Cochlear Implants:</strong> <ul><li>Hybrid systems combine electrical stimulation for high-frequency sounds with acoustic amplification for low-frequency sounds.</li> <li>They are ideal for patients who still retain some residual hearing in lower frequencies but struggle with higher frequencies.</li> <li>This type allows users to benefit from both natural hearing and electrical stimulation.</li></ul>

Testimonials
My 4-year-old daughter was diagnosed with profound hearing loss, and we were devastated. After consulting the ENT team at SCI Hospital, they recommended a cochlear implant. The procedure went smoothly, and within months of activation, she started responding to sounds and speaking new words. It was the best decision we ever made.

I lost my hearing gradually over the years and felt disconnected from conversations at work and home. Hearing aids were no longer effective for me. At SCI Hospital, the specialists suggested a cochlear implant. The surgery and rehabilitation process were well-guided, and now I can hear clearly again. My quality of life has improved tremendously.

My son was born with hearing loss and received his cochlear implant at SCI Hospital before the age of three. The doctors and audiologists were very supportive throughout the journey, from testing to therapy sessions.
