Potential Advantages of High Pulse Rate Stimulation of Cochlear Implants - Bioelectromagnetism, 1998. Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on

Lower thresholds and smaller stimulus currents may allow for the use of smaller cochlear implant stimulus electrodes and potentially more channels of stimulation within a given cochlea region. With high (2kpps) compared to low (125pps) pulse rate stimuli, inferior colliculus (IC) units have a significantly lower stimulus threshold [l]. The provision of a background "spontaneous" stimuli may pro...

Comparison of Auditory Perception in Cochlear Implanted Children with and without Additional Disabilities

Background: The number of children with cochlear implants who have other difficulties such as attention deficiency and cerebral palsy has increased dramatically. Despite the need for information on the results of cochlear implantation in this group, the available literature is extremely limited. We, therefore, sought to compare the levels of auditory perception in children with cochlear implant...

2nd Pakistan international biennial conference on Ramadan and health

The ninth month of Islamic calendar is known as Ramadan, in which fasting is obligatory for every adult man and woman, except in certain health conditions and during travelling. Since Islamic jurisprudence follows the lunar calendar, which is about 11 days shorter than the Gregorian, Ramadan falls in different seasons throughout the year. The duration of fasting hence may differ by 11 to 18 hou...

Characterization of Nd: Yag Laser Radiation Effects on Ti6Al4V Physico-Chemical Properties: An In Vivo Study

The effect of a Nd: YAG laser (1064 nm) has been studied on Ti6Al4V alloy in terms of optical and physical parameters for biomedical applications. The superior surface microhardness hardness (i.e. 377 VHN) is attributed to grain refinement associated with laser melting and rapid solidification. The electrochemical property, mainly pitting corrosion resistance, has been carried out in Hanks salt...
