Experience improved sound quality with Cochlear Baha System - a unique, bone anchored hearing solution for those with SSD, conductive or mixed hearing loss.

Jun 11, 2019 · Do you have a “good ear?” Is crossing the street or keeping up with conversations in a busy restaurant difficult and exhausting? If you are living with single-sided deafness, it may be time to learn about the Cochlear™ Baha® System as a solution to help those with single-sided deafness (SSD).

Cochlear has multiple treatment options for Single-Sided Deafness that offer unique benefits depending on the patients' individual needs. Whether a Bone Conduction Solution or a cochlear implant, Cochlear has the right solution for any candidate experiencing Single-Sided Deafness.

Apr 4, 2009 · Compared to an external air-conduction hearing aid or a conventional bone-conduction hearing aid used for SSD, the Baha implant produces higher fidelity sound without placing any components on or in either ear.

Dec 15, 2017 · Identify single sided deafness and list challenges faced by patients with single-sided deafness (SSD). Identify 3 advantages of a bone conduction system relative to other treatment options. Describe the treatment pathway with Baha 5 technology for their SSD patients.

Aug 1, 2012 · The use of a Baha device for SSD is intended to improve speech recognition. SSD is an indication for a Baha for patients who suffer from unilateral sensorineural deafness on one ear, while the other ear has normal hearing of no worse than 20 dB.

May 31, 2004 · The Baha System is an implantable hearing system that uses direct bone conduction stimulation. In SSD patients the signal is transcranially routed to the normal cochlea via bone conduction.

The Baha System has been supported for patients with a unilateral sensorineural deafness or SSD. The Baha device picks up sound on the deaf side and the sound is transmitted via bone conduction to the contralateral ear/cochlea.

Objective: Despite most patients with single-sided deafness (SSD) after operation for acoustic neuroma (AN) perceiving a significant hearing handicap, less than 25% are interested in bone-anchored hearing aid (BAHA) implantation.

The Baha system is effective in the rehabilitation of patients with SSD and mild to moderate hearing loss in the only hearing ear. Results of the current study suggest that either the Divino or Intenso processor was successful in reestablishing hearing from the deafened side.
