The Auditory Ossicles

1.9K
The auditory ossicles of the middle ear transmit sounds from the air as vibrations to the fluid-filled cochlea. The auditory ossicles consist of two malleus (hammer) bones, two incus (anvil) bones, and two stapes (stirrups), one on each side. These bones develop during the fetal stage and are the ones to ossify first. They are fully mature at birth and do not grow afterward.
The aptly named stapes look very much like a stirrup. The three ossicles are unique to mammals, and each plays a role in...

Anatomy of the Ear

Auditory sensation, commonly called hearing, involves the transformation of sonic waves into neural impulses facilitated by the structures of the auditory organ. The prominent, flesh-like structure on the side of the head, called the auricle, directs sound waves towards the auditory canal. The auricle is often mislabeled as the pinna, a term more aligned with mobile structures like a feline's external ear. The auditory canal penetrates the cranium via the external auditory meatus of the...

The Cochlea01:13

The Cochlea

45.7K
The cochlea is a coiled structure in the inner ear that contains hair cells—the sensory receptors of the auditory system. Sound waves are transmitted to the cochlea by small bones attached to the eardrum called the ossicles, which vibrate the oval window that leads to the inner ear. This causes fluid in the chambers of the cochlea to move, vibrating the basilar membrane.

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Hearing Science

Background:

  • Bone conduction implants offer solutions for hearing loss.
  • Technological advancements in implant processors aim to improve audiological outcomes.
  • Comparing the performance of the latest processors is crucial for clinical decision-making.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the audiological performances of Turkey's most up-to-date bone conduction implant processors.
  • Evaluate speech understanding in quiet and noisy environments.
  • Identify statistically significant differences between processors.

Main Methods:

  • Twenty-six bone-anchored hearing instrument users participated.
  • Participants were divided into two groups of thirteen.
  • Speech understanding was assessed in quiet and various signal-to-noise ratios.

Main Results:

  • The Baha-6® processor demonstrated statistically significant differences in specific measurements.
  • Improvements were noted at 0.5 and 1 kHz in free-field frequency-specific tests.
  • Aided SRT scores and matrix test results showed advantages for the Baha-6® in certain conditions.

Conclusions:

  • Both tested processors provide benefits for users in diverse listening conditions.
  • Statistically significant differences were observed in critical daily-practice measurements.
  • The Baha-6® processor showed superior performance in specific audiological tests.
