Bone-conduction amplification with completely-in-the-canal hearing aids.
Recent advances in miniaturization have provided clinicians with hearing aids that can be comfortably inserted as far as the bony portion of the ear canal. It is possible to take advantage of these deeply inserted hearing aids in new ways. For example, the physical vibrations of microphone and receiver components may be used to improve hearing aid gain through bone conduction. Three cases are p...
متن کاملImplantable Bone Conduction and Bone-Anchored Hearing Aids
Unilateral Conductive or Mixed Hearing Loss Unilateral implantable bone conduction (bone-anchored) hearing aid may be considered medically necessary as an alternative to an air-conduction hearing aid in patients 5 years of age and older with a conductive or mixed hearing loss when ONE of the following medical criteria is met: Congenital or surgically induced malformations (eg, atresia) of the...
متن کاملBinaural hearing ability with mastoid applied bilateral bone conduction stimulation in normal hearing subjects.
The ability to use binaural cues when stimulation was by bilaterally applied bone conduction (BC) transducers was investigated in 20 normal hearing participants. The results with BC stimulation were compared with normal air conduction (AC) stimulation through earphones. The binaural hearing ability was tested by spatial release from masking, binaural intelligibility level difference (BILD), bin...
متن کاملIntraindividual comparison of the bone-anchored hearing aid and air-conduction hearing aids.
BACKGROUND Some patients have to stop using their air-conduction hearing aid(s) because it causes or exacerbates chronic otitis. Then, a solution is the use of a bone-conduction hearing aid such as the percutaneous bone-anchored hearing aid (BAHA). OBJECTIVE To compare patients' performance with their previous air-conduction hearing aid(s) and their BAHA using audiometric tests and a question...
متن کاملDirectional hearing aids: then and now.
Directional microphone hearing aids can lead to improved speech recognition when speech and noise are coming from different directions. This technology provides limited benefits, however, and in specific instances use of a directional hearing aid mode can be detrimental. This article discusses the benefits and limitations of directional amplification, summarizes some current work in directional...
