Conclusions: based on measurements performed on the device whilst it was implanted and during explant investigation, it must be assumed that the explantation was not due to a technical problem.The recipient_s perception was unsatisfactory and decreasing over time; however, no technical problem could be detected.The investigation showed that the electronic circuit is functional.Mechanical damages found are most likely attributable to the explantation surgery.Based on the recipient report the reason for the reduced benefit for the recipient seems to be non-device related.This is a final report.
