Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - Osia System
Experimental: Bone-conduction hearing device - The bone-conduction hearing device Osia system allows a direct bone-conduction through an osseointegrated implant. A magnet allows the external Sound Processor to be placed in the correct position over the implanted system including an inner magnet.
Treatment: Devices: Osia System
An external Sound Processor captures and digitize the sound which is transferred to the internal implant where it is converted to an electrical signal. The electrical signal is further transferred as a vibration through an osseointegrated implant to the mastoid bone and eventually to the cochlea.

Hearing Performance: Threshold Audiometry, Pure Tone Average of 4 Frequencies, PTA4, Unaided Versus OSIA System at 3 Months
Query!
Assessment method [1]
0
0
The change of hearing performance from the unaided hearing situation before surgery to the aided hearing situation with the OSIA system at 3 month, measured as free-field hearing test; Threshold audiometry PTA4 (mean of 500, 1000, 2000 and 4000 Hz) is presented. A Pure Tone Average (PTA) refers to the average of hearing threshold levels at a set of specified frequencies: typically 500, 1000, 2000 and 4000 Hz. This value gives a snapshot of an individual's hearing level. If PTA is \<25 dB, the overall hearing would be considered to be within normal limits. With a PTA of 95 dB, the hearing would be considered in the profound range. The units reported for PTA4 are decibels (dB). The results presented here are the difference of PTA4 unaided and PTA4 aided with the Osia system. An uaided PTA4 values should be higher than a aided PTA4 if the hearing device is effective. A lower or more negative score is more desirable and reflects a better ability to hear softer sounds.

Adaptive Speech Recognition in Noise, Unaided Versus OSIA System at 3 Months.
Query!
Assessment method [2]
0
0
The change of hearing performance from the unaided hearing situation before surgery to the aided hearing situation with the OSIA System at 3 months measured as free field hearing test Adaptive speech recognition in noise, is presented. Adaptive speech recognition in noise was measured as Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). The noise was kept constant at 65 dB SPL and the speech was adapted in dB steps to establish the Speech-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) providing a 50% level of understanding. A ratio of 0 reflects the ability to correctly hear sentences at 65 dB, in the presence of 65 dB background noise. A negative SNR-value reflects the ability to correctly hear sentences below 65 dB, for example if 50% of the speech is received correctly at 55 dB the SNR value is -10. A positive SNR-value (Speech to Noise Ratio) reflects the ability to correctly hear sentences presented above 65 dB. A lower or more negative score is more desirable and reflects abetter hearing in a noisy enviroment.

Hearing Performance: Threshold Audiometry Individual Frequences, Unaided Versus OSIA System at 4 Weeks, 3, 6 and 12 Months
Query!
Assessment method [2]
0
0
The change of hearing performance from the unaided hearing situation before surgery to the aided hearing situation with the OSIA system at 4 weeks, 3, 6 and 12 months, measured as free-field hearing test: Threshold audiometry (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0 and 8.0 kHz) is presented. This value gives a snapshot of an individual's hearing level. If PTA is \<25 dB, the overall hearing would be considered to be within normal limits. With a PTA of 95 dB, the hearing would be considered in the profound range. The units reported for PTA4 are decibels (dB). The results presented here are the difference of the unaided hearing level expressed in dB and the hearing level aided with the Osia system at different time points. An unaided value should be higher than a aided if the hearing device is effective. A lower or more negative score is therefor more desirable and reflects a better ability to hear at the specified frequency.
