What Is Cochlear Implant and How Does It Work?

At Vedanta Speech and Hearing Health Care, we provide comprehensive Cochlear Implant and Rehabilitation services for individuals with severe to profound hearing loss who do not benefit from hearing aids. Our expert team guides patients through every step—from pre-implant evaluation and surgical coordination to post-implant activation and ongoing auditory rehabilitation. Through structured therapy and personalized support, we help patients adapt to the new sounds, develop speech and language skills, and reconnect with the world around them. Our goal is to ensure the best possible outcomes and quality of life for every cochlear implant recipient.

Cochlear implants, or electronic implants, are electronic devices used to help compensate for damage in your inner ear due to a variety of causes, such as age deterioration, a birth defect, or another cause. They are made up of an external processor and an internal electrode designed to work together to deliver processed sound signals directly to the auditory nerve.

The internal electrode is threaded into the cochlea using a simple surgical procedure. This component receives digitally processed sound signals produced and transmitted by the external processor and then transmits them to the auditory nerve, bypassing the auditory system. Hearing aids, by contrast, send processed sounds through the ear canal and the auditory system.

Since the FDA granted approval for the use of cochlear implants in the 1970s, technology has continued to improve the performance capabilities of the device. Today’s electronic implants are far more efficient than they were a few decades back, thanks to advancements in digital technology, which has had a significant impact on the processing and performance capabilities of hearing implants, just like they have with cell phones and other electronic devices.

Cochlear implants do not cure hearing loss, but as a replacement for hearing aids or used along with them, they often provide the much needed alternative solution to overcome individual hearing loss challenges, especially in individuals who have experienced limited success from the use of hearing aids.

Hearing Aid vs. Cochlear Implant

Hearing Aids amplify sound and rely on the integrity of the hair cells of the inner ear. Patients with severe to profound hearing loss may, therefore, obtain limited or no benefit for speech perception.

Cochlear Implant on the other hand bypasses/replaces damaged hair cells and directly stimulates the auditory nerve. The electrodes in the internal component of the implant provide the “electrical spark” that is picked up by the nerve and taken to the brain for interpretation. Because these electrodes lie along the length of the cochlea, it is possible to have access to the full range of sounds even where there were no hair cells present.


It is important to note that the insertion of the electrode array results in total hair cells loss; consequently, a hearing aid cannot be used in the implanted ear.

How the Implant Works

Each implant system consists of two parts: an internal component and an external component.

Internal Component

The internal component consists of a decoder and magnet housed in protective casing. The electrode array extends from this casing. The surgeon will drill into the skull to make a “bed” for the decoder. The remainder of the internal component sits on the skull but under the skin. The magnet picks up the information provided from the external components. The internal component then determines which electrodes will fire with what power/current.

External Components

The external components consist of a microphone, a series of cords, a transmitting coil and a speech processor. Each part must be worn in order for the device to work. The microphone picks up sounds preferentially from the front of the listener and transmits the sound along the long cord to the speech processor. The speech processor contains a program individual to each listener indicating the minimum amount of current needed for a sensation of first hearing and the maximum amount of current tolerable. This program extracts the most important aspects of the incoming speech signal and transmits this information back up the long cord across to the transmitting coil. The signal travels across the skin via radio frequencies to the internal component. As mentioned earlier, the decoder of the internal component takes this information and determines which electrodes will fire and with what power. This processing of sound takes place in real time, not like a foreign film where the voices and lip movements are not in synchrony.
