Embodiment Construction

[0020] Various embodiments of bone conduction and / or bone fixation hearing aid systems, devices, components, and methods are described herein.

[0021] Bone-anchored hearing device (BAHD) is a kind of hearing prosthesis device based on bone conduction, one or more parts of which are implanted by surgical method. BAHD uses the bones of the skull as a path for sound to travel to the patient's inner ear. For patients with conductive hearing impairment, BAHD bypasses the external auditory canal and middle ear and stimulates the still functioning cochlea through an implanted metal column. For patients with unilateral hearing impairment, BAHD uses the skull to conduct sound from the deaf ear to the side of the cochlea with normal function. In most BAHA systems, a titanium column or plate with small pillars extending through the skin of the patient and exposing the skin of the patient is implanted into the skull through surgery. The BAHD sound processor is attached to the pillar and t...

Abstract

Various embodiments of systems, devices, components, and methods are disclosed for magnetic spacers configured for use in conjunction with bone conduction hearing aids and corresponding magnetic implants. According to some embodiments, the magnetic spacers are configured to vary the amount and / or orientation or direction of magnetic coupling force provided thereby.

Description

Technical field [0001] The various embodiments of the present invention described herein relate to the field of systems, devices, components, and methods for bone conduction hearing aid devices. Background technique [0002] The magnetic bone conduction hearing aid is fixed at the position of the patient's head by the magnetic attraction force existing between the magnetic member included in the hearing aid and the magnetic member included in the magnetic implant implanted under the patient's skin and attached to the patient's skull. If the user’s skin or tissue at this single location is very thin or inflamed during wearing the magnetic hearing aid, or if the user feels discomfort or pain during the wearing of the hearing aid, the only effective treatment for this pain or discomfort is from the user Remove the magnetic hearing aid from the head. In addition, magnetic bone conduction hearing aids must have sufficient magnetic coupling capabilities to safely remain fixed to the u...
