Area of Science:

Otolaryngology
Audiology
Biomedical Engineering

Background:

Conventional treatments are insufficient for certain types of hearing loss.
Bone conduction implants provide an alternative for conductive, mixed, and single-sided deafness.

Purpose of the Study:

To establish consensus quality standards for bone conduction implant programs.
To ensure a high standard of care for patients receiving bone conduction implants.

Main Methods:

The HEARRING network developed quality standards for bone conduction implant programs.
Standards cover team structure, facilities, patient selection, and postoperative care.

Main Results:

Fifteen key areas were analyzed for quality standards.
These include preoperative information, surgical procedures, device fitting, and patient follow-up.

Conclusions:

Bone conduction implants are valuable for specific hearing loss conditions.
Established quality standards aim to optimize patient solutions and care.
