Characterization of Ossicular Chain Vibration at the Umbo: Implications for a Middle Ear Microelectromechanical System Design

We propose the use of a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) accelerometer as a middle ear microphone for future totally implantable cochlear prostheses. The MEMS accelerometer would be attached to the umbo to detect and convert the natural bone vibration that occurs in response to external sounds i...
