    • A hearing device for use with a cochlear implant system is disclosed. An input portion receives, as a stimulus, an acoustic signal, converts the acoustic signal into an electrical acoustic signal and provides the electrical acoustic signal. A processing portion processes the electrical acoustic signal and conducts an active grounding procedure. An implant portion being implantable at least partially in a cochlea of the user comprises a plurality of operation electrodes and a reference electrode, e.g. an external electrode being grounded and implantable outside of the cochlea of the user. The operation electrodes are driven by the processing portion on the basis of the electric acoustic signal. An electrode state setting section sets the plurality of operation electrodes into one of a high impedance state, a grounded state and a stimulating state in which a signal based on the electric acoustic signal is supplied to a stimulation electrode of the plurality of operation electrodes. An electrode state setting pattern determining section selects, according to an operation mode of the cochlear implant system, one of a plurality of electrode state setting patterns, wherein each of the electrode state setting patterns is adapted to enable a stimulation by a stimulation electrode of the plurality of operation electrodes being in a stimulating state and at least one of the plurality of operation electrodes being in a grounded state or in a high impedance state. The electrode state setting section sets the plurality of operation electrodes into the specified electrode state according to the selected electrode state setting pattern.

    • According to an embodiment, a medical device is disclosed. The medical device includes an external unit and an implantable unit. The external unit includes an electronic unit operationally coupled to a transmitter coil that is configured transmit power and/or data signal over a wireless transcutaneous link, a coil unit comprising a loop structure with the transmitter coil being wound around and along at least a part of length of the loop structure, and a fixation unit configured to attach the loop structure to a user's body i) proximal to an implantable receiver coil that is configured to be implanted within a body part, and ii) around a body part of a user such that a part of the body part is positioned in a hollow section of the loop structure. The implantable unit includes the implantable receiver coil configured to receive the power and/or data signal over the wireless transcutaneous link, a processing unit configured to i) process the received data signal to control functionalities of at least one of the components of the implantable unit, and/or ii) utilize the received power for operation of at least one of the components of the implantable unit. The wireless transcutaneous link includes a coupling between the transmitter coil and the receiver coil, and when the loop structure is attached using the fixation unit, at least a substantial number of magnetic field lines generated in response to excitation of the transmitter coil passes through the implantable receiver coil.
