Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of cochlear implants, and in particular relates to an optically based fully implantable cochlear implant device. Background Technology
[0002] Cochlear implants are among the most successfully used neural prostheses in the world, suitable for hearing restoration and reconstruction in patients with severe or profound sensorineural hearing loss. The cochlear implant uses an external sound processor's microphone to collect external sound information, which is then transmitted wirelessly to a decoder / stimulator inside the body. This information is converted into electrical signals that bypass damaged hair cells and directly stimulate the auditory nerve, achieving the clinical effect of hearing reconstruction. However, external sound processors are easily lost during use, and wearing them externally compromises patient privacy, potentially causing stigma and severely impacting hearing reconstruction effectiveness and mental health. Furthermore, external sound processors rely on battery power, often requiring removal and safekeeping during activities such as bathing, swimming, and sleeping, limiting the user's usage scenarios and activity range. Domestic and international experts have proposed the concept of a fully implantable cochlear implant, integrating all functional components into the body. From the patient's perspective, it appears identical to a normal person, helping to increase patient confidence in hearing implantation, protect patient privacy, ensure 24 / 7 use, expand the usage scenarios, and benefit more patients with severe and profound sensorineural hearing loss.
[0003] Currently, the mainstream approaches to sound acquisition in fully implantable cochlear implants fall into two main categories. One is the electret microphone, which senses sound vibrations through a diaphragm. The diaphragm generates regular electrical signals as it shifts. A typical application involves fixing the microphone to the outside of the skull and implanting it under the skin to collect external sounds. However, this method has several drawbacks: sound transmission through the skin causes significant attenuation, limiting the signal-to-noise ratio, and it also generates considerable background noise interference. Furthermore, the microphone's shock resistance and the consistency of the diaphragm after long-term implantation must be considered. The other approach is the piezoelectric microphone, which directly converts the pressure transmitted to the diaphragm / piezoelectric element into electrical energy using the piezoelectric effect. A typical application involves a needle-shaped pressure probe collecting vibrations of the ossicles or tympanic membrane in the middle ear. Based on different frequency amplitudes, these vibrations are converted into electrical signals. While this method can significantly reduce the impact of ambient noise and utilize the natural amplification function of the auricle and ear canal, it still has disadvantages. Specifically, because the ossicles vibrate at different frequencies and have a very smooth surface, long-term implantation poses significant challenges to the stability of the ossicles and the consistency of the sensor probe's position. Displacement can lead to hearing loss. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an optically based fully implantable cochlear implant device to solve the problems of human noise interference and sensor displacement leading to decreased hearing effect in the prior art.

[0060] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features described therein can be combined with each other.
[0061] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.
[0062] The technical solutions of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments.
[0063] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, the optically-based fully implantable cochlear implant device includes:
[0064] An optical sensing module includes a light generator and a photodetector. The optical sensing module is used to emit a light source and receive light signals reflected back from a sound vibration module. The sound vibration module includes a tympanic membrane or ossicles connected to the auditory conduction pathway structure.
[0065] The photoelectric conversion module, which is optically connected to the optical sensing module, includes a photoelectric adapter and an integrated printed circuit board. The photoelectric conversion module is used to convert the received optical signal into an alternating current signal.
[0066] A sound processing module electrically connected to the photoelectric conversion module, the sound processing module including an analog-to-digital conversion unit and a signal processing unit, the sound processing module being used to process sound information and convert the AC signal into a DC signal;
[0067] A decoding stimulation module electrically connected to the sound processing module, the decoding stimulation module including a decoding stimulation chip and a decoding stimulation circuit, the decoding stimulation module being used to decode sound information and convert the DC signal into a pulse signal;
[0068] Cochlear stimulation electrodes electrically connected to the decoding stimulation module, the cochlear stimulation electrodes being used for auditory nerve electrical stimulation based on pulse signals; and
[0069] An implantable power module is provided, comprising a rechargeable battery, a charging coil, and a charging / discharging circuit. The implantable power module is electrically connected to the photoelectric conversion module, the sound processing module, and the decoding stimulation module, respectively, for supplying power.
[0070] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, the device comprises seven modules, which, based on the signal acquisition, transmission, processing, and application process, are a sound vibration module, a photoelectric sensing module, a photoelectric conversion module, a sound processing module, a decoding stimulation module, and a cochlear stimulation electrode, as well as an implantable power supply module that supplies power to the photoelectric conversion module, the sound processing module, and the decoding stimulation module.
[0071] Furthermore, the sound vibration module and the photoelectric sensing module are connected through light reflection, while the photoelectric sensing module and the photoelectric conversion module are connected through optical fiber. Other modules are connected electrically through wires. For example, the photoelectric conversion module and the sound processing module are connected electrically through wires, as are the sound processing module and the decoding stimulation module. Correspondingly, the decoding stimulation module and the cochlear stimulation electrode are also connected electrically through wires. Since the implanted power supply module supplies power to the photoelectric conversion module, the sound processing module, and the decoding stimulation module, they are also electrically connected separately through wires.
[0072] Specifically, the working process of this device is as follows: External sound is collected and amplified by the auricle and enters the external auditory canal, causing the tympanic membrane and ossicles to vibrate. The light generator in the optical sensing module fixed in the middle ear emits a light signal. The tympanic membrane or ossicles (or a reflective material fixed on it) receives and reflects the light signal. The slight vibration of the tympanic membrane or ossicles changes the intensity and phase of the reflected light. The probe of the photodetector receives the light signal modulated with sound information, and then transmits it through optical fiber to the photoelectric conversion module. The photoelectric conversion module converts the light signal modulated with sound information into an electrical signal and transmits it to the sound processing module. Further, the sound processing module analyzes and demodulates the electrical signal to extract the sound information and transmits it to the decoding stimulation module based on a DC electrical signal. Finally, it transmits the signal to the cochlear stimulation electrode to emit a pulse electrical signal to stimulate the auditory nerve, thereby achieving the effect of hearing reconstruction.
[0073] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the utility model, the sound vibration module includes a tympanic membrane or ossicles connected to the auditory conduction pathway structure, wherein the sound vibration module further includes a reflective material.
[0074] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the auditory conduction pathway begins in the outer ear, passes through the middle ear, and ends in the inner ear, connecting with the peripheral nerve fibers of the bipolar cells in the spiral ganglion. Therefore, the acquisition of sound vibrations can be applied to the tympanic membrane or ossicles in the auditory conduction pathway structure. Since vibration causes displacement, the signal can be acquired by using light reflection. To ensure sufficient light reflection amplitude, reflective material can be added to the tympanic membrane or ossicles, i.e., the reflective material is fixed to the tympanic membrane or ossicles. In this way, even very small vibrations can be acquired by the corresponding light reflection. Accordingly, the material of the reflective material can be barium titanate glass, or any other lightweight, biocompatible, and highly reliable material.
[0075] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the utility model, the light generator is used to emit a light source of a specified wavelength to the sound vibration module, and the photodetector is used to receive the light signal reflected back by the sound vibration module based on the light source of the specified wavelength.
[0076] It should be noted that the above embodiments illustrate that the connection between the sound vibration module and the photoelectric sensing module is established through light reflection. Specifically, in this embodiment, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the photoelectric sensing module includes a light generator and a photodetector. The light generator is used to emit a light source of a specified wavelength to the sound vibration module. For example, a semiconductor laser lamp can be used to emit the specified wavelength using any material with high reliability and stability. The photodetector is used to receive the light signal reflected back by the sound vibration module based on the current specified wavelength light source. The photodetector can be composed of an optical fiber probe with a collimator. The probe part can be made of a highly corrosion-resistant material. Furthermore, in application, the entire optical sensing module is encapsulated in medical-grade implantable silicone or other highly biocompatible elastomers and is directly or indirectly fixed to the side wall of the temporal bone or the middle ear cavity through a base or structural design.
[0077] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the utility model, the photoelectric adapter is used to connect the optical fiber to the integrated circuit components on the integrated printed circuit board, and the integrated circuit on the integrated printed circuit board is used to convert the optical signal into an AC signal.
[0078] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as Figure 3As shown, the photoelectric conversion module includes a photoelectric adapter and an integrated printed circuit board. The photoelectric adapter is used to connect the optical fiber to the integrated circuit components on the integrated printed circuit board, thereby ensuring the reception of the optical signal with demodulated audio information. The integrated circuit on the integrated printed circuit board is used to convert the corresponding optical signal into an AC signal. The photoelectric conversion module can be individually packaged in a housing such as polycaprolactone, Peek, or titanium.
[0079] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the utility model, the analog-to-digital conversion unit is used to convert the AC signal into a DC signal, and the signal processing unit includes a DSP chip and a processing chip, wherein the signal processing unit is used to process the DC signal to transmit it to the decoding stimulation module.
[0080] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the sound processing module includes an analog-to-digital conversion unit and a signal processing unit. In application, it can be separately packaged in a housing such as titanium. Specifically, the signal processing unit includes a DSP chip and a processing chip. The DSP chip is a microprocessor particularly suitable for performing digital signal processing operations. Its main application is to implement various digital signal processing algorithms in real time and quickly. The analog-to-digital conversion unit is used to convert the transmitted AC signal into a DC signal, while the DSP chip and processing chip are used to process the DC signal to transmit the signal to the decoding stimulation module. Accordingly, the specific processing process is not the focus of this application, so it will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0081] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the utility model, the cochlear stimulation electrode includes a plurality of electrode contacts, wherein the material of the electrode contacts includes at least pure platinum or a platinum-iridium alloy.
[0082] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the decoding stimulation module includes a decoding stimulation chip and a decoding stimulation circuit. In application, it can be separately encapsulated in a shell such as titanium metal. It is used to convert electrical signals containing sound information into pulse signals, thereby electrically stimulating the auditory nerve through cochlear stimulation electrodes. The cochlear stimulation electrodes include a number of electrode contacts, such as "20-26" electrode contacts. The material of the electrode contacts includes at least pure platinum or platinum-iridium alloy. The entire assembly is encapsulated with medical-grade implantable silicone or other highly biocompatible elastomers.
[0083] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the utility model, the charging and discharging circuit includes a charging processing unit and a digital-to-analog conversion unit. The digital-to-analog conversion unit is used to convert the DC power of the rechargeable battery into AC power for power supply. When the external charger wirelessly transmits energy to the charging coil, the charging processing unit is used to process the energy acquired by the charging coil to charge the rechargeable battery.
[0084] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as Figure 6 As shown, the implanted power module includes a rechargeable battery, a charging coil, and a charging / discharging circuit. The charging / discharging circuit includes a charging processing unit and a digital-to-analog converter. When an external charger wirelessly transmits energy to the charging coil, the charging processing unit processes the energy obtained from the charging coil to charge the rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery converts the DC signal into an AC signal through the digital-to-analog converter to power other corresponding modules. Accordingly, the implanted power module can also be separately encapsulated in a housing such as titanium.
[0085] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the utility model, the photoelectric conversion module, the sound processing module, the decoding stimulation module, and the implanted power module are encapsulated in a preset housing, wherein the photoelectric conversion module, the sound processing module, and the decoding stimulation module are integrated into one unit, and the material of the housing includes at least titanium metal.
[0086] It should be noted that, as described in the above embodiments, the photoelectric conversion module can be individually packaged in a housing such as polycaprolactone, Peek, or titanium, the sound processing module can be individually packaged in a housing such as titanium, and the decoding stimulation module can be individually packaged in a housing such as titanium. Therefore, in this embodiment, the photoelectric conversion module, the sound processing module, and the decoding stimulation module can be integrated into one unit to save costs in practical applications. The housing material typically includes titanium.
[0087] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the utility model, the device further includes a calibration module, which includes an external microphone and a wireless transmission unit, and is used to calibrate the sound information received by the sound processing module.
[0088] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as Figure 7As shown, the calibration module includes an external microphone and a wireless transmission unit. The external microphone can be placed near the entrance of the external auditory canal to collect external sound information. The signal is transmitted to the sound processing module inside the body via the wireless transmission unit. Then, through the sound processing module and the decoding stimulation module, it is converted into a pulse electrical signal that stimulates the auditory nerve. The function module setting of collecting sound through the external microphone can realize the functional testing and calibration of the sound acquisition of the in-body optical sensing module during the initial implantation, and can also realize the periodic calibration of the sound acquisition quality of the in-body optical sensing module during long-term implantation, so as to ensure the hearing quality of the patient throughout the entire life cycle of the fully implantable cochlear implant shown in this patent.
