For over five years, ADHEAR has been available as a treatment option to people of all ages with unilateral or bilateral conductive hearing loss, whether chronic or temporary. As a non-surgical bone conduction device, ADHEAR has been shown to provide children and adults with immediate hearing improvements. Celebrating Over Five Years of ADHEAR To
Clinicians are just starting to discover the great potential of anatomy-based fitting, an approach to cochlear implant frequency mapping that only MED-EL offers as part of our fitting software, MAESTRO, which is available to clinicians. It is the next step forward in providing cochlear implant recipients closer to natural hearing. As a new feature introduced with the release of MAESTRO 9.0, anatomy-based fitting (ABF) allows you to align the frequency map stimulated by the CI to the natural place-pitch frequency map in the cochlea as best as possible.
The sensitivity of a cochlear implant system governs the quietest sound level that results in usable stimulation for the implantee. This must be “just right” for a recipient to get the best benefit from their device. Given the terms used in the title, we will begin with a couple of definitions: Dynamics relates to how
SAMBA 2 is the latest generation audio processor for MED-EL’s active middle ear implant, VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE, and our bone conduction implant, BONEBRIDGE. What tests and user experiences have shown for a long time has now also been confirmed by a recent peer-reviewed publication: The sophisticated technology built into SAMBA 2 increases hearing quality and speech
