   Modern cochlear implant research started in the 1960s and 1970s. In 1961, a crude single electrode device was implanted in two deaf patients and useful hearing with electric stimulation was reported. The first FDA approved complete single channel device was released in 1984. [25]

6. Microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcurrent_electrical...

   A microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator or MENS (also microamperage electrical neuromuscular stimulator) is a device used to send weak electrical signals into the body. Such devices apply extremely small microamp [uA] electrical currents (less than 1 milliampere [mA]) to the tissues using electrodes placed on the skin.

7. Electrical muscle stimulation - Wikipedia
