摘要： An elongate electrode carrier member for implantation in a location external to the cochlear canals to position at least one, and likely many, electrodes sufficiently proximate to the organ of Corti to effectively deliver stimulation signals to the auditory nerve fibers of the cochlear. Generally, the carrier member is dimensioned to be implanted in a crevice, channel or pocket formed between the spiral ligament and bony capsule of the cochlear. Embodiments of the carrier member preferably have a minimized volume to accommodate insertion into such a crevice. In addition, embodiments of the carrier member comprise an elongate bulbous central region having electrodes disposed on the medial surface thereof, and elongate tapered side regions laterally extending from the central region. The side regions have rounded edges and are preferably flexible, while the carrier is configured to coil or turn toward the medial surface. This construction facilitates implantation of the carrier member: the carrier member has sufficient longitudinal strength to maintain its form and direction while being pushed into the surgically-formed crevice, and coils in a longitudinal plane to follow the contour of the cochlear, while the side regions serve to guide the direction of travel, flexing out of the lateral plane as necessary to avoid damaging anatomical structures. Once implanted, embodiments of the carrier member are urged to remain in its implanted position due to one or more of either the side regions extending into the corners of the crevice, and/or due to the curved lateral surface of the carrier member which approximates the curvature of the endosteum along the basal turn of the cochlea.
摘要翻译：一种用于植入耳蜗通道外部位置的细长电极载体部件，以将至少一个足够靠近Corti器官的电极定位并且可能地许多，以有效地将刺激信号传递到耳蜗的听觉神经纤维。通常，载体构件的尺寸被设计成植入形成在耳蜗的螺旋韧带和骨膜之间的缝隙，通道或口袋。承载构件的实施例优选地具有最小的体积以适应插入到这样的缝隙中。此外，载体构件的实施例包括细长的球状中心区域，其具有设置在其内表面上的电极和从中心区域横向延伸的细长锥形侧区域。侧部区域具有圆形边缘并且优选地是柔性的，而载体构造成朝向内侧表面线圈或转向。这种构造便于载体构件的植入：载体构件具有足够的纵向强度以在被推入手术形成的缝隙中时保持其形状和方向，并且在纵向平面中线圈遵循耳蜗的轮廓，而侧面区域用于引导行进方向，根据需要从侧向平面弯曲，以避免损伤解剖结构。一旦被植入，承载构件的实施例被推动以保持在其植入位置，这是由于侧壁区域中的一个或多个延伸到缝隙的角部和/或由于承载构件的弯曲侧表面近似于耳蜗沿耳蜗基底转弯的曲率。

摘要： An implantable tissue-stimulating device comprising an elongate electrode carrier member (11) having a plurality of electrodes thereon. The carrier member (11) is preformed from a resiliently flexible biocompatible silicone and extends from a distal end (12) to a stop member (13). The carrier member (11) is adapted for intracochlear but extraluminar insertion within the cochlea of an implantee. The placement of the carrier member (11) is designed to avoid any breach of the internal ducts of the cochlea (20), such as the scala tympani (24) and scala vestibuli (25) so that the normal hydrodynamic behavior of the cochlea (20) is not affected by any intrusive device. Use of the device in a system for masking or treating the symptoms of tinnitus is also described.

摘要： An implantable tissue-stimulating device comprising an elongate electrode carrier member (11) having a plurality of electrodes thereon. The electrodes are preferably disposed in a linear array on the carrier member (11) and are adapted to apply a preselected tissue stimulation to the cochlea. The carrier member (11) is preformed from a resiliently flexible biocompatible silicone and extends from a distal end (12) to a stop member (13). The carrier member (11) is adapted for intracochlear but extraluminar insertion within the cochlea of an implantee. In particular, the carrier member (11) is adapted to be implanted in the crevice (21) between the spiral ligament (22) and the endosteum (23) of the lateral wall of the cochlea (20). This is a quite different location to the normal placement of the cochlear implant electrode array in the scala tympani (24) of the cochlea (20). The placement of the carrier member (11) is designed to avoid any breach of the internal ducts of the cochlea (20), such as the scala tympani (24) and scala vestibuli (25) so that the normal hydrodynamic behaviour of the cochlea (20) is not affected by any intrusive device. By preservng the normal hydrodynamic behaviour of the cochlea (20), use of the carrier member (11) maximises the possibility of also preserving any hearing of the implantee that is offered by the cochlea (20). Use of the device in a system for masking or treating the symptoms of tinnitus is also described.

摘要： A cochlear implant electrode assembly device comprising an elongate electrode carrier member, a stiffening element, and a stiffening sheath that at least partially envelops the elongate member. The member is made of a resiliently flexible first material and has a plurality of electrodes mounted thereon. The member has a first configuration that allows it to be inserted into an implantee's cochlea. The member also has a second configuration wherein the member is curved to match an inside surface of the cochlea, and at least one intermediate configuration between the first and second configurations. Both the stiffening element and sheath are made of a material that is relatively stiffer than the member. The stiffening element and the stiffening sheath in combination bias the elongate member into the first configuration. If either the stiffening element or the stiffening sheath is removed or deactivated, the elongate member adopts an intermediate configuration.
