Overview

Retrospective cohort study assessed electrode failure in Advanced Bionics implants, suggesting long-term stability.

Key Points

  • Device failures in Advanced Bionics cochlear implants mostly happen within the first 5 years post-implantation.
  • In total, 24 out of 140 implants (17.1%) experienced failure, with a median failure time of 3.6 years.
  • Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed a significant decrease in failure rate after the first 5 years, down to 2.1% annually.
  • Findings highlight long-term stability of cochlear implants, aiding in patient counseling and follow-up care.
