摘要: The present invention provides a fully implantable cochlear implant system (FICIS) that allows various configurations of different modules to be combined so as meet the needs particular patient, including very young patients. At least three main are used in FICIS, (1) small stimulator (ICS) module, with permanently attached electrode array; (2) an speech processor (ISP) integrated microphone and rechargeable battery; (3) external module. In one embodiment, module may comprise (ESP) another battery charger (EBC) ICS ISP configured facilitate long time reliable use e.g., for lifetime low-risk, relatively easy replacement
