Bone-conduction hearing aid Is a Hearing aid true Inferred relationship Some

Inbound Relationships Type Active Source Characteristic Refinability Group
A sterile, battery-powered, electromechanical device assembly intended to compensate for impaired hearing by transmitting vibrations, from transduced sound waves, through the skull to the inner ear. It typically consists of a self-contained microphone, amplifier, and vibrator mounted on a titanium (Ti) post which is implanted into the skull, typically the mastoid bone, and protrudes through the skin. Sound waves are converted into electrical signals and sent to the vibrator, which transmits vibrations directly through bone to the inner ears for hearing. It is used to treat hearing impairment due to middle and/or outer ear obstructive pathologies or types of conductive hearing loss. Is a True Bone-conduction hearing aid Inferred relationship Some
