Apparatus and method for treating strial hearing loss

摘要

An electrolytic current injection device comprising an electrode and an electrolytic current port. In addition a control and rectification assembly is adapted to apply a biphasic pulse to said electrode, yet produce a pulsatile, unidirectional DC electrolytic current at said electrolytic current port. In one preferred embodiment a set of micro machined switches and a refresh electrode are used to maintain the unidirectional DC electrolytic current over time.
