Totally Implantable cochlear implant
Is it possible that the Totally Implantable ci clinical trials already started and nobody knows about it besides the company? And that the Totally Implantable cochlear implant all of a sudden is commercially available in 2013?
The Cochlear did say in August 2011 that the completely implantable cochlear implant may well be targeting launch within three years (its now two years). More information... the Cochlear is using Otologic's Implantable microphone. Otologics Fully Implantable Hearing Device Phase II Results Results No significant differences between preoperative (AC = 59 dB, BC = 55 dB) and postoperative (AC = 61 dB, BC = 54 dB) unaided pure tone averages were noted (p < 0.05). Pure tone average implant aided thresholds (41 dB) were equivalent to that of walk-in-aided (37 dB) condition with no significant difference (p < 0.05) between patients’ walk-in-aided individual frequency thresholds and implant-aided thresholds. Word recognition scores and hearing in noise scores were similar between the walk-in-aided and for the implant-aided condition. Patient benefit scales will be presented at all end points. Conclusions Results of the Otologics MET Fully Implantable Hearing Device Phase II trial provide evidence that this fully implantable device is a viable alternative to currently available hearing aids in patients with sensorineural hearing loss. http://oto.sagepub.com/content/139/2_suppl/P57.2 Is the totally implantable cochlear implant facing commercial availability in early 2013?

IMBack doesn't have any hearing and his hearing aids are low level chain store crap because he is to poor to get a real pair. He preys on everyone on this site because he has no life, he is mad at the world and blames them because he can't hear. If you want to talk the talk IMBACK post your address and let's see what happens when someone show's up to kick your no spine ass. Please take your time and write a really long post back to me, I need to laugh at your sorry ass again. hugs and kisses.
If you want to know where I am I'm in Florida, Hernando county, I will give you my address if you would like to come visit me.

I don't think this is possible in a short time. Maybe 20 years from now.
