The Naída CI Q30 Sound Processor and Accessories Overview
The Naída CI Q30 is the newest and most advanced cochlear implant sound processor
available.
As evidence of Advanced Bionics' dedication to providing the best hearing possible, the Naída
CI Q30 provides access to AutoSound™ technology, which dynamically adapts to every listening
environment, automatically adjusting volume levels to optimize hearing. The Naída CI Q30 is
also capable of utilizing all approved sound processing options offered by Advanced Bionics.
Depending on the country in which you live, this may include HiRes™-S, HiRes™-P, HiRes Fidelity
120™, ClearVoice™, HiRes™ Optima, CIS, and MPS.
The Naída CI Q30
The Naída CI Q30 is a miniature computer that converts sound picked up by the microphone
into electrical signals that are used by the cochlear implant to enable hearing. It is able to store
up to five (5) user-selectable programs for optimal hearing across all listening environments.
The Naída CI Q30 has diagnostic indicators, such as LEDs and internal audible alarms. The
Naída CI Q30 LEDs provide important information about Naída CI Q30 status, battery life,
program position, audio input, and Naída CI Q30 error conditions. Internal alarms provide a
discreet way for adult recipients to get important information about battery status, program
number, and volume level. For more information, refer to the
Alarms
sections of this User Guide.
The Naída CI Q30 can be programmed using Intellilink™ safety feature to prevent use by
a cochlear implant other than the one for which it has been programmed. IntelliLink is an
important safety feature for very young children and bilateral implant recipients.
The Naída CI Q30 can also be programmed bilaterally allowing the recipient access to up to
ten programs on a single processor, up to five programs for the left ear and up to five programs
for the right ear. When programmed bilaterally by your clinical professional, the Naída CI Q30
will detect which ear it is worn on and provide access to the appropriate programs for that ear.
