HiRes Ultra 3D implant

The HiRes Ultra 3D Cochlear Implant has been awarded the Medtech Breakthrough Award 2019 for Best Medical Device Solution.

Product Information

Getting a cochlear implant (CI) is a life-changing decision. Whether it’s listening to a live performance, talking to a friend or relative on the phone, participating in a meeting, playing sports or simply enjoying the sounds of the world around you, you deserve the most accurate and complete sound possible.

Clear, Effortless Hearing in Every Setting

Every aspect of our HiRes Ultra 3D CI system has been optimized for clarity, comfort and convenience and to work seamlessly together toward one unwavering goal: helping you hear your best. Thanks to the sophisticated electrode design and our partnership with Phonak, the world leader in hearing aids, the AB sound processor can deliver frequency information to 120 locations in the cochlea. This gives you a fuller and richer hearing experience. And no matter what environment you are in, our system automatically filters out background noise and adjusts to deliver optimal hearing.

Key Benefits and Features

Hassle Free MRI

Our HiRes Ultra 3D cochlear implant, with its multi-magnet assembly that provides 3D magnetic field alignment, has no restriction on head orientation during the MRI. You can enjoy hassle free and pain free MRI examinations, and it eliminates the lengthy preparation procedures for you, such as surgical removal and reinsertion of the magnet, after which you need to wait some time until you can use the implant again. With Hires Ultra 3D after the MRI you put back on your sound processor for uninterrupted hearing.

Pain Free

Going into an MRI tube is stressful. Not being allowed to move your head in the MRI field can increase that stress. And so does the prospect of pain you may experience. Our HiRes Ultra 3D cochlear implant requires no restriction on head orientation during an MRI. This means you can be more relaxed and comfortable within the magnetic field. The multi-magnet assembly that provides 3D magnetic field alignment ensures that the powerful forces generated during an MRI don’t cause any torque, pressure, tugging or discomfort for you, for pain-free MRI procedures every time.

Uninterrupted Hearing

When getting an MRI, you will not need any special preparation other than taking off your sound processor and headpiece. And when the scan is done, all you have to do is put it back on. With our HiRes Ultra 3D cochlear implant we provide you uninterrupted hearing, which is essential for your everyday life.

Future-Proof

Our HiRes Ultra 3D cochlear implant is designed to accommodate future new developments in signal processing and compatibility with product enhancements. It has spare capabilities which gives you peace of mind.

Gentle on the Inner Ear

Our implant’s tiny electrode array is what stimulates your hearing nerve. Our electrodes are designed to protect the delicate cochlea structures and provide complete coverage of the cochlea for full spectrum sound.

Thin, Strong and Versatile

The HiRes Ultra 3D is designed to exceed industry standards for all-day use and impact resistance, so you can enjoy all of life’s adventures without limits.

Wireless capabilities and benefits

The AB Naída sound processors have wireless capabilities for better performance in challenging listening environments. Speech understanding in noisy situations is very important and AB offers you the latest Phonak technology to address exactly that.

Vs. Competitors

The HiResTM Ultra cochlear implant from Advanced Bionics (AB) consists of forward-thinking technologies that work together to provide the best CI based hearing possible. It is the capability and unsurpassed digital processing power that sets HiRes Ultra apart from other cochlear implants. HiResolution implantable technology is the foundation for optimal hearing. The quality of the sound delivered by a cochlear implant system is a direct result of how well the system captures and delivers the details of sound. The HiRes Ultra cochlear implant was designed to deliver all of the loudness, pitch, and timing information that is essential for natural sound perception and appreciation of music: it automatically encodes the widest range of intensities (up to 80 decibels); it is capable of delivering frequency information to 120 cochlear sites of stimulation using a patented delivery method called current steering; it provides up to 83,000 updates per second.
