Trying to decide between SONNET 2 and RONDO 3? We’ve got some tips to help you pick the right audio processor for your cochlear implant.
The middle ear is made up of several tiny bones that work together to transport sound waves to the inner ear and then to our brains, enabling us to hear. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for this sensitive system to stop working. But passive middle ear implants can help people with conductive hearing loss by replacing the tiniest bones in the body.
In 2023, there are more ways than ever to stream sound to your MED-EL audio processor. We’ve got AudioStream and AudioLink for our cochlear implant users, and SAMBA 2 GO for BONEBRIDGE and VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE recipients.
It’s official. Music training helps you get the most out of your cochlear implant. And we’re not just talking about music enjoyment. Music training can help you understand conversations in noisy environments, increase your listening skills, and even tune into emotions. But how can you get started with it?
If you have conductive or mixed hearing loss, sounds can’t reach your inner ear effectively. Enter bone conduction implants. They pick up the sounds around you and send the vibrations directly to your inner ear, skipping the damaged parts. But not all bone conduction implants are created equal.
Connect, learn, hear: Hearpeers is MED-EL’s international community for people with hearing implants, those considering getting a hearing implant, and family or friends of implant users or candidates. It is the place where you can connect with other people with hearing loss, share experiences, and learn more about hearing loss and hearing solutions.
