Platinum corrosion products from electrode contacts of human cochlear implants induce cell death in cell culture models.
Despite the technological progress made with cochlear implants (CI), impedances and their diagnosis remain a focus of interest. Increases in impedance have been related to technical defects of the electrode as well as inflammatory and/or fibrosis along the electrode. Recent studies have demonstrated...
