300 - Inside the Cochlear Nexa Implant System: Advancing Hearing Outcomes Through Innovation

What if a cochlear implant could adapt and improve throughout a patient’s lifetime? Hearing health advocate and author Gael Hannan sits down with Brendan Murray, Vice President of CI Product Portfolio at Cochlear, to discuss the launch of the Cochlear™ Nucleus® Nexa™ System. The Nexa is the first cochlear implant platform with upgradeable firmware, allowing recipients to benefit from future innovations beyond traditional sound processor upgrades.The system includes the Nucleus Nexa Implant along with the new Nucleus 8 Nexa and Kanso 3 Nexa Sound Processors. Key features include internal memory to securely store individualized hearing settings, Smart Sync for rapid restoration of maps when replacing a processor, and Dynamic Power Management for improved efficiency. The Nucleus 8 Nexa Sound Processor is also 9% smaller and 12% lighter than its predecessor, while still delivering all-day battery life.In this conversation, Murray outlines how the Nexa represents the first major cochlear implant redesign in more than 20 years, bringing advances in patient self-management, expanded diagnostic tools for clinicians, and a platform that can adapt to future hearing innovations.
