After more than 25 years of clinical experience, the BAHA (bone-anchored hearing aid)
system is a well-established treatment for hearing-impaired patients with conductive or mixed …

Objectives: The main objective of this study was to determine the influence of listening
environment and earphone style on the preferred-listening levels (PLLs) measured in users' ear …

We examined the ability of 40 young children (aged five to eight) to understand speech (monosyllables,
spondees, trochees, and trisyllables) when listening in a background of real-life …

Objective: To develop an algorithm that prescribes targets for bone conduction frequency
response shape, compression, and output limiting, along with a clinical method that ensures …

Reading and spelling skills are important to communicate in today's literate society, however,
the underlying processes of spelling skills are under‐researched compared to reading …

Objective Rehabilitation options for conductive and mixed hearing loss are continually
expanding, but without standard outcome measures comparison between different treatments is …

The nature and extent to which the cerebellum contributes to language processing is not
clear. By using fMRI to examine differences in activation intensity in areas associated with …

Pure-tone audiometric data indicated that the hearing thresholds of both subjects
deteriorated by 5 to 10 dB for most frequencies. The biggest changes occurred at 4000 Hz (the …

Objective: The objective of the present study was to compare three methods of estimating
the audibility of aided speech using the Baha.

Objectives: Current approaches to fit bone-anchored hearing aid (Baha) rely heavily on patient
feedback of “loudness” and “sound quality.” Audiologists are limited to this approach for …
