The different kinds of bone-conduction devices (BCDs) available for hearing rehabilitation
are growing. In this paper, all BCDs currently available or in clinical trials will be described in …

Background Hearing aids and implants employing bone conduction (BC) stimulation have a
long tradition in the treatment of conductive or mixed hearing loss, with their indications …

Purpose Aim of the study was to evaluate the surgical, clinical and audiological outcome of
32 implantations of the Bonebridge, a semi-implantable transcutaneous active bone …

Abstract Background The Cochlear™ Osia® System leaves a retroauricular bump that can
cause discomfort and poor aesthetic outcome. Method To reduce the retroauricular bump …

Objectives Investigation of bone conduction sound propagation by osseous and non-
osseous pathways and their interactions based upon the stimulation site and coupling …

Objective: To investigate audiological and quality of life outcomes for a new active
transcutaneous device, called the bone conduction implant (BCI), where the transducer is …

Objectives: In 2012 the first active bone conduction implant was introduced, but did not fit
into the mastoids of some adults and many children. Thus, a geometry change of the …

Objectives Evaluation of the transfer function efficiency of a newly-developed piezo-electric
actuator for active subcutaneous bone conduction hearing aid. Methods The experiments …

Objective: To investigate the minimum bone thickness in adults and children in the area of
the skull affected by implantation of a new bone conduction device in patients without known …

Semi-implantable transcutaneous bone conduction devices are treatment options for
conductive and mixed hearing loss (CHL/MHL). For counseling of patients, realistic …
