First Pediatric Experience With a Novel, Adhesive Adapter Retained, Bone Conduction Hearing Aid System

Abstract

The adhesive aid produces comparable audiological results to the commercial softband hearing aids. It provides an excellent alternative in the treatment of conductive hearing loss without the possible complications and costs of a surgical intervention. Furthermore, it preserves skin envelope over the mastoid for those who wish to proceed with an autologous pinna reconstruction in the future.
