Abstract: A stackable filter device for filtering an input to a source of suction comprises: a substantially hollow filter pad having first and second filter walls constructed of a filter material, the periphery of the first filter wall being sealingly engaged to the periphery of the second filter wall to form the filter pad, each of the filter walls having an aperture. The first and second filter walls each have an annular member fixedly contacted to the circumferential edge of the aperture. The annular members support the aperture, and are structured so as to integrally form connectors operable to removably connect the filter device to the source of suction or to an additional filter device on a first side of the filter device and to a sealing end cap or an additional filter device on a second side of the filter device. The filter device preferably includes a tubular stiffening member passing through the filter device. The stiffening member is rigidly attached at each end thereof to one of the annular members. The stiffening member comprises a perforated tubular shaft forming an air passage through the filter device.

Abstract: A method is described to allow for better selection of electrodes for neural stimulation, for example in a cochlear implant. A series of stimuli, at different stimulation levels, are provided at each electrode to be tested, and the neural response to each stimulus is measured, using an implanted electrode. A value is then calculated relating stimulus level to response, to allow the relative responsiveness of electrodes to be determined. This can then be used as the basis for a stimulation map used to select which electrodes are stimulated and at what level.
