According to the Gallaudet Annual Survey of school age children, approximately
As of 2007, approximately 120,000 individuals have cochlear implants worldwide according to the three cochlear implant manufacturers (Cochlear Corporation, Med El, and Advanced Bionics). There are at least 25,000 children under 18 who have obtained cochlear implants who are in the US. More than 1/2 of these students are reported to be under the age of 5.
Cochlear Corporation
91,000 individuals with their CI in the world
42,000 of those are children
48,300 of those are adults
In the USA:
35,500 in US
17,800 of those are children
21,700 of those are adults
Over 50% of the children being implanted are under 5 years old.
Advanced Bionics
24,000 with their CI in the world
At Kendall Demonstration Elementary School
According to the Gallaudet Annual Survey of school age children, approximately
37,500 children were surveyed in 2005.
only 4,000 were listed with cochlear implants.
This survey underestimates the numbers of children in the US with cochlear implants. We know that is not the case because of the manufacturer data.

Although I do agree with your post, I have my own reservations.

I NEED TO FIND OUT IF THERE IS POST FOR SOMEONE WITH A SECOND CI THAT DID NOT SET UP OR DOES NOT OPERATE. I KNOW THAT THE DOCTOR THAT PERFORMED THE SURGERY ON THE FIRST ONE WAS AWARE OF THAT AND THAT IS WHY HE DID THE RT SIDE FIRST. OF COURSE KNOW HE HAS RETIRED. A NEW DOCTOR IS LOOKING INTO THE COCLEAR,WHICH IS NOT OPERATING. I HEAR LOW TONE NOICES AND I DON'T THINK THAT IT CAME FROM THE OTHER SIDE. SHOULD THIS BE LOOKED AT OR MAYBE A WHOLE NEW SURGERY DONE. THANK YOU TC.
