Intended use

The Cochlear Baha System uses bone conduction to
transmit sounds to the cochlea (inner ear) with the
purpose of enhancing hearing. The Baha 5 Power Sound
Processor is intended to be used as part of the Cochlear
Baha System to pick up surrounding sound and transfer
it to the skull bone via a Baha Implant, Baha Softband or
Baha SoundArc and can be used unilaterally or bilaterally.
Indications
The Baha System is indicated for patients with conductive
hearing loss, mixed hearing loss and single-sided
sensorineural deafness (SSD). The Baha 5 Power Sound
Processor is indicated for patients with up to 55 dB SNHL.
Clinical benefit
Most recipients of a bone conduction hearing solution will
experience improved hearing performance and quality of
life compared to unaided listening.
The fitting is to be done either at a hospital, by an
audiologist, or in some countries, by a hearing care
professional.
