Intended use
The Cochlear™ Baha®5 Sound Processor
uses bone conduction to transmit
sounds to the cochlea (inner ear). It is
indicated for people with conductive
hearing loss, mixed hearing loss and
single sided sensorineural deafness (SSD).
Furthermore it is indicated for bilateral
and paediatric recipients. Fitting range
up to 45 dB SNHL. It works by combining
a sound processor and a small titanium
implant that is placed in the skull behind
the ear. The skull bone integrates with the
titanium implant through a process called
osseointegration. This allows sound to
be conducted via the skull bone directly
to the cochlea, which improves hearing
performance. The sound processor can
be used together with the Baha Softband.
The fitting is to be done either at a
hospital, by an audiologist, or in some
countries, by a hearing care professional.
