Summary

A hearing loss affects the quality of life and the natural development of children.

The new generation of hearing devices provides a huge number of options to them. These new hearing aids are often aesthetically acceptable, less invasive and user-friendly.

The ADHEAR Non-Implantable Bone Conduction Hearing System is connected directly to the skin with a special adhesive adapter. The device transmits the sound to the mastoid by vibrating on the skull and stimulates the inner ear without any previous surgery.

The objective of this study is to evaluate of the audiological benefit and subjective satisfaction of ADHEAR Audio Processor with Adhesive attachment in a group of children suffering from conductive hearing loss and/or single sided deafness.
