In order to direct the electrode to the cochlea, a
tiny incision behind the ear and a hole in the mastoid bone are often made at
the start of a cochlear implant procedure. The implant electrode is inserted
within the cochlea by the surgeon once the incision has been completed. After
that, the surgeon inserts an internal processor into the space behind the ear
that exists between the muscle and the bone. An external voice processor that
will be worn outside the skin provides data to this inside processor. You will
be sent to a recovery area after the implants are placed and the incisions are
sutured. The entire treatment takes around two hours, and since general
anesthesia is usually used, you will be unconscious the entire time.
The starting cochlear
implant costs in India is $12000 USD. The cost of a cochlear implant
was around $17,000 a few years ago. It has been lowered to $12000 going as high
as $25000, nevertheless, as a result of government measures. In contrast, the
cost of cochlear implant surgery in other nations is far more than that of
India.
