The Cochlear Nucleus SmartNav App is designed to be used by surgeons and healthcare professionals to provide a suite of intraoperative measurements related to the placement and function of the electrodes in the cochlea. The Nucleus SmartNav App together with the Cochlear Surgical Processor is intended as an intraoperative tool to be used only by surgeons and healthcare professionals working in the operating theatre.
The Nucleus SmartNav App is intended to be used at the surgeon’s discretion. Measurements may be useful during surgery as additional input to other sources of diagnostic tools such as intraoperative imaging, electrode markers, or other standard diagnostic procedures, to support surgical decisions relating to electrode placement.
WARNING
The Nucleus SmartNav App and surgical processor are to be used for surgery only, and should only be used while the recipient is under general anaesthetic. Some diagnostic measurements may cause discomfort in conscious patients.
