Executive Summary
Australian hearing solutions specialist Cochlear has introduced in Europe its Cochlear Nucleus 5 system, described as the "world's thinnest" cochlear implant. The launch follows hot on the heels of the device's US approval, which was granted last week by the FDA in the form of a premarket approval (PMA) supplement to the firm's previous cochlear implant, the Nucleus Freedom.
