Controversy of Cochlear Implants in America Today Hearing is a complex sense and affects a child’s cognitive, linguistic, and social characteristics. However, we having 28 million Americans that have hearing impairments. Most lose their hearing due to aging, ear infections, sickness, and genetic abnormalities. Today we have scientific advancements which has lead to the invention of what is called a “cochlear implant”(Chaikof 1) .Cochlear implants are used as a "cure" to sensor - neural hearing loss by bypassing the outer ear through electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve. In extreme hearing loss, mostly cause from genetic abnormalities, there are not enough functioning hair cells in the cochlea to stimulate the ear from externally received speech information.

Dementia syndrome is a group of signs and symptoms, in which cause damage to cells in the brain. The most common causes are neurodegenerative diseases; this includes Alzheimer’s, Vascular, and Frontotemporal, lewy bodied, Creutzfeldt - Jakob disease (CJD) and Huntington disease.

Most experts believe they somehow block communication among nerve cells and disrupt activities that cells need to survive. Introduction Alzheimer’s disease is a brain disorder named for German physician Alois Alzheimer, who first described it in 1906. Scientists have learned a great deal about Alzheimer’s disease in the century since Dr. Alzheimer first drew attention to it. Today we know that Alzheimer’s: * Is a progressive and fatal brain disease. As many as 5.3 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease.

They have come to the realization that they cannot live the rest of their lives without assistance from a loved one and may eventually end up living in the confines of a nursing home. For most, that is something that is extremely difficult to come to grips
