Bone Anchored Hearing Aid: A Narrative Review [PDF]

Journal 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

IEEE 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 ...

The Prediction of Speech Recognition in Noise With a Semi-Implantable Bone Conduction Hearing System by External Bone Conduction Stimulation With Headband

Trends in Hearing, 2016
Semi-implantable transcutaneous bone conduction devices are treatment options for conductive and mixed hearing loss (CHL/MHL). For counseling of patients, realistic simulation of the functional result is desirable.

Bone conduction facilitates self-other voice discrimination

Royal Society Open Science, 2023
One's own voice is one of the most important and most frequently heard voices. Although it is the sound we associate most with ourselves, it is perceived as strange when played back in a recording.
