We didn’t really hesitate when we chose Advanced Bionics.

AB had the features that are important to us: technology upgrade anticipation, easy Bluetooth connectivity, waterproof options, and compact batteries for Miles’ little ears. The support that comes with the products is second to none. Plus, we dig the colour.

Sky CI Integro and HiRes Ultra 3D Implant Work Together to Help Your Child Hear Their Best


The (1) microphones on the (2) sound processor pick up sounds around your child. These sounds are turned into digital signals that are sent to the (3) headpiece. The headpiece sends the signals to the (4) HiRes Ultra 3D implanted under the skin. The (5) electrode array stimulates your child's hearing nerve. The hearing nerve send the signals to the brain, allowing your child to hear their world.


Is a Cochlear Implant Right for My Child?

As a parent of a child with hearing loss, know that you’re not alone. With the right information and support, you can make the best decisions to help your child thrive. 

For many children, hearing aids are the first step to helping them hear. However, children who have more hearing loss may not get enough sound from hearing aids to learn to listen and talk. In these cases, a cochlear implant might be a better option.

We are here to support you every step of the way.

FAQs on Cochlear Implants for Children

Cochlear implants are very successful for most children who are appropriate candidates. The gap between good and exceptional outcomes is often driven by age of implantation, daily wear time, rehabilitation, and family support rather than the technology alone. Your CI centre will be able to assess whether your child is a suitable candidate.

Your hearing healthcare team can help you decide when is the best time for your child to get a cochlear implant. 

Integro CI is the new cochlear implant solution from AB, offering important features not available in any other CI system. For example, it has SoundFinder, the only CI technology proven to help adults and children know where sounds come from, helping them stay safe. It is also the only CI solution with advanced Phonak hearing technology to help people hear well even in the most challenging situations. In fact, Integro CI has more technology to improve hearing than any other cochlear implant brand. 

Hearing aids basically make sounds louder. But for children with more hearing loss, this may not be enough to make sounds clearer or easier to understand. Cochlear implants send sound signals directly to the hearing nerve, where they are sent on to the brain.

For most children, cochlear implant surgery is a routine procedure performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2–4 hours. During the operation, the surgeon places the internal implant under the skin behind the ear and carefully inserts the electrode array into the cochlea. Most children go home the same day or after one night in the hospital and are back to their usual activities within a few days.
