Medicare 1971: Changing Attitudes and Changing Legislation [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Bone Anchored Hearing Aid: A Narrative Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2023
Bone Anchored Hearing Aid (BAHA) is a small vibrator that can be reversibly attached to a Titanium (Ti) screw and implanted behind the ear. It uses the bone conduction channel to activate the cochleae by converting sound into the vibration of the screw.

Effect of Driver Mass Loading on Bone Conduction Transfer in an Implantable Bone Conduction Transducer

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
This paper focuses on transducers, which are the most important components of bone conduction implants. To improve vibration magnitude, we develop a coil vibration transducer in which the driver mass loading is reduced by about 3.25-fold compared to ...

Bromocriptine-associated ototoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Three patients treated with bromocriptine for chronic hepatic encephalopathy showed audiometric evidence of bilateral sensori-neural hearing-loss. Audiometrically, the hearing improved in all three patients when the bromocriptine dosage was reduced, thus

Correlates of calcaneal quantitative ultrasound parameters in patients with diabetes: the study on the assessment of determinants of muscle and bone strength abnormalities in diabetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
OBJECTIVE: Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) provides an estimate of bone mineral density (BMD) and also evaluates bone quality, which has been related to increased fracture risk in people with diabetes.

Evaluating temporal bone column density for optimized bone conduction implant placement

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2023
IntroductionAn optimal placement of bone conduction implants can provide more efficient mechanical transmission to the cochlea if placed in regions with greater bone column density.

Bone conductive implants in single sided deafness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Conclusion: The Bone Conductive Implants (BCI) showed to partly restore some of the functions lost when the binaural hearing is missing, such as in the single-sided deafness (SSD) subjects.

Rare manifestation of a c.290 C\u3eT, p.Gly97Glu VCP mutation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction. The valosin-containing protein (VCP) regulates several distinct cellular processes. Consistent with this, VCP mutations manifest variable clinical phenotypes among and within families and are a diagnostic challenge. Methods.

Air and Bone Conduction Frequency-specific Auditory Brainstem Response in Children with Agenesis of the External Auditory Canal

open access: yesInternational Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2017
Introduction The tone-evoked auditory brainstem responses (tone-ABR) enable the differential diagnosis in the evaluation of children until 12 months of age, including those with external and/or middle ear malformations.
