The First Active Transcutaneous Bone Conduction Implant in Romania-Case Report of Permanent Conductive Hearing Loss Due to Cleft Palate by Madalina Georgescu in Trends in Telemedicine & E-health
Since the introduction of bone conduction hearing implants in 1977,
quality of life of the implantees have improved substantially. The first
available
option were bone-anchored hearing devices, which improved sound quality,
but had the major disadvantage of post-operative skin and wound
infections.
Therefore, new technologies seeking intact skin solution have emerged
lately. The BONEBRIDGE system (MED-EL, Medical Electronics, Innsbruck,
Austria) incorporates the first active bone conduction device, which
especially aims to resolve abutment issues and still offers excellent
audiological
benefit.
