Characterization of the auditory system responses to infrared neural stimulation of the cochlear nucleus

The aim of this project is to study the use of pulsed infrared laser light to stimulate the central auditory system. This novel approach may be a means to improve the efficacy of the current generation of electrically based Auditory Brainstem Implants (ABI ...

Micromotion measurement around femoral stem for the long-term success of total hip arthroplasty

The primary stability of cementless femoral components is crucial for the long-term success of total hip arthroplasty. The mechanisms which influence this stability are not yet well understood. However, mechanical environment in peri-implant tissue is know ...

Design of a Semi-Implantable Hearing Device for Direct Acoustic Cochlear Stimulation

Yves Perriard, Hans Bernhard

A new hearing therapy based on direct acoustic cochlear stimulation was developed for the treatment of severe to profound mixed hearing loss. The device efficacy was validated in an initial clinical trial with four patients. This semi-implantable investiga ...

The DIRAC AWEAR Audio-Visual Platform for Detection of Unexpected and Incongruent Events

Petr Motlicek, Hynek Hermansky, Barbara Caputo, Jie Luo

It is of prime importance in everyday human life to cope with and respond appropriately to events that are not foreseen by prior experience. Machines to a large extent lack the ability to respond appropriately to such inputs. An important class of unexpect ...

The in vivo performance of magnetic particle-loaded injectable, in situ gelling, carriers for the delivery of local hyperthermia

Heinrich Hofmann, Antonin Faes, Alke Fink, Olivier Jordan, Daniel Ruefenacht

In situ forming implants are attractive for minimally invasive localized therapies such as aneurysm embolization. As for the superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs), their deposition/injection in a target tissue area allows magnetically induced ...

Potential novel drug carriers for inner ear treatment: hyperbranched polylysine and lipid nanocapsules

Harm-Anton Klok, Zuzana Kadlecova, Markus Scholl

Aim: Treatment of sensorineural hearing loss could be advanced using novel drug carriers such as hyperbranched polylysine (HBPL) or lipid nanocapsules (LNCs). This study examined HBPL and LNCs for their cellular uptake and possible toxicity in vitro and in ...

New implantable hearing device based on a micro-actuator that is directly coupled to the inner ear fluid

Yves Perriard, Hans Bernhard

A new hearing therapy called Direct Acoustical Cochlear Stimulation (DACS) was developed and validated in a first clinical trial with four patients. The key component of this therapy based on an implantable hearing device is a micro-actuator that is implan ...
