ꞏ
Take a printout from your clinician of your most recent
programs in case you need help with your sound
processor.
ꞏ
If you have a backup sound processor, check that it is
programmed correctly and take it with you.
ꞏ
It’s okay to move through metal detectors and full body
scanners with your sound processor on. To avoid any
possible buzzing sounds in your ear, turn off the telecoil.
ꞏ
Ask your clinician for a Patient Identification Card. In the
unlikely event that your implant sets off a metal detector
the ID card will help explain that you have an implanted
medical device.
ꞏ
If you need to remove your sound processor as you
move through airport security, place it in a case in your
hand luggage.
ꞏ
Your sound processor transmits high frequency radio
waves when switched on, and may need to be placed in
a flight-safe mode during takeoff and landing. Check
with airline staff before flying if you are unsure.
