Cochlear implant in India is a very rare curative procedure then. Under the leadership of Dr. P.G.Visvanathan, Dr.Aruna Viswanathan and Dr.Anjana Visvanathan, we offered this technology to India, thereby making the cure for hearing loss accessible and affordable. The cochlear implant surgery is a very handy treatment for those who suffer from severe hearing loss or deficiency. Here, an electronic device (a receiver-stimulator) is implanted inside the ear of the patient. The implantation of this type is specially created electronic chip takes place in the rear portion of the temporal bone, which is known as the ‘mastoid bone’. This instrument will receive the sound codes through an outside mechanism comprising of a transmitter, receiver, and a processor. Then it decodes the same and gives the required notifications to the brain. ‘Cochlear Implant’ is relatively a short surgical process, which needs only two or three hours to complete. In most cases, common anesthesia is enough to perform this procedure. Cochlear implant procedure in India is easy these days. However, one must make sure to approach the best ENT surgeon in India, who is well aware of the modern implant otology procedures. Usually, the implanted device will be activated after 1 to 4 weeks, depending upon the patient’s recovery from the surgery wounds. The techniques used are the finest here for both adults and children.
The Auditory Brain Stem Implant treatment is recommended for those who suffer from a typical medical condition called ‘Neurofibromatosis Type II’, or from severe deafness and auditory glitches such as ‘auditory nerve aplasia’, ‘cochlea ossification’, etc. Vikram ENT Hospital is one of the top-ranked ENT care Hospital in India as far as the cochlear implant concerned. The ENT surgeon implants a typical electrical chip within the inner ear of the patient and with the help of the headphone that is worn externally the patient receives the properly deciphered sound. Our Hospital has a rich pool of the best ENT surgeons in India, who are experienced in otologic surgery and the related otology procedures. If you are at Vikram ENT hospital, the patient can be assured of the ‘auditory brain stem implant’ as it becomes an easy task.

We at Vikram ENT Hospital provide this advanced type of therapeutic treatment where the surgery is performed by experienced doctors, who can be categorized as the best ENT surgeons in India. The cosmetically improved Vibrant Sound Bridge Implant is a distinctive type of middle ear implant technique, which will be useful to patients who suffer from mild or severe sensorineural hearing disorders. In this technique, the environmental signals are converted into mechanical oscillations, which in turn facilitate the patient to follow and comprehend the sound. The benefit of using Vibrant Sound Bridge implant technology enables you to hear without a hearing aid. We have pioneered the use of VSB in south Asia
Bone Bridge Implant treatment is suitable for curing the various ENT problems, including the one ear hearing loss. This procedure is done under general anesthesia usually as a Day Care Procedure. In this method, there is a visually detectable mechanism that has an external audio processor, which is worn behind the ear. The titanium fixture that is fixed in the mastoid bone will direct sound into the inner ear. The sound generated is converted into mechanical fluctuation because of the ‘BB Implant’, and this will be audible in the middle ear. As a result, high-frequency sound tones will be created, and the user can detect these tones easily.
Bone Anchored Hearing Aid (BAHA) is a useful treatment method for successfully solving any commonly seen hearing complaint. BAHA creates direct stimulation, which goes further than the external and the middle portions of the ear, and reaches the inner ear through the skull bone. In this method, the ‘titanium implant’ is fixed in the bone of the skull, just near the rear part of the earlobe. There will be an abutment that attaches the sound processor and the implant. Thus sound signals are converted into neural signals. This is a far better option than the conventional types of hearing aids. The user will be able to hear the better quality sound.
Doctors prescribe total or partial ‘Ossicular Reconstruction’ in compliance with the actual need of the patient. Here, the titanium implant is the abutment that facilitates the movement of the sound waves to the inner ear using the tympanic membrane, devoid of any disturbances or distractions. In the partial ‘Ossicular Reconstruction’, the replacement of malleus and incus are done rather than the stapes (the human middle ear bone). When you choose Vikram ENT Hospital for getting Ossicular Reconstruction surgery done, you can definitely make sure that the same is performed by the best ENT surgeon in India, who possesses up-to-date knowledge regarding otology procedures and technology used.
