Bone Conduction in Otosclerosis [PDF]
BMJ, 1948 OTOSCLEROSIS has always been described as typical conduction deafness. The reason for this description is that until recent years Rinne's and Schwabach's tests, on which the diagnosis between conduction and perceptive deafness depends, were always performed with a low-pitched tuning fork, usually middle C (256 vibrations per second); and in ...

Review of Bone Conduction Hearing Devices
Audiology Research, 2021 Bone conduction is an efficient pathway of sound transmission which can be harnessed to provide hearing amplification. Bone conduction hearing devices may be indicated when ear canal pathology precludes the use of a conventional hearing aid, as well as ...

Medicare 1971: Changing Attitudes and Changing Legislation [PDF]
, 1970 Bone conduction (BC) is the way sound energy is transmitted by the skull bones to the cochlea causing a sound perception. Even if the BC sound transmission involves several pathways including sound pressure induced in the ear canal, inertial forces ...
