Brief Summary
Main objectives
- The first main objective is to evaluate the non-inferiority of the ADHEAR system compared to the PONTO 3 SUPERPOWER softband system in terms of average tonal gain.
- The second main objective of the study is to evaluate the superiority of the ADHEAR system compared to the PONTO 3 SUPERPOWER softband system in terms of comfort. Secondary objectives
- Evaluate skin reactions with ADHEAR and PONTO 3 SUPER POWER on softband.
- Evaluate and compare perception in silence and noise with ADHEAR and PONTO 3 SUPER POWER on softband.
- Evaluate and compare the subjective auditory perception with ADHEAR and PONTO 3 SUPER POWER on softband.
- Evaluate the satisfaction and use of ADHEAR.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Average tonal gain (dB)
The threshold of free-field tonal audiometry is measured in the free field with masking of the contralateral ear with and without the auditory system. The tonal gain is defined by the difference of the tonal threshold with / without the auditory system. The average tonal gain is defined by the average of the tonal gain at frequencies 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 Hz.
15 days after fitting of the system and port at home
Comfort
Perceived comfort will be measured with a visual analogue scale (VAS) of 10 cm overall comfort. The VAS will have the following anchors: 10 = very comfortable; 8 = comfortable; 6 = comfortable enough; 4 = uncomfortable; 2 = very uncomfortable; 0 = not comfortable at all

Study Arms (2)
ADHEAR-PONTO
OTHERThe ADHEAR system will be fitted to the patient who will take it at home for 15 days. Afterwards, the patient will come back to the clinical center and measurements will be done with the ADHEAR system. Then the patient will be fitted with the PONTO 3 SUPER POWER on softband and will take it at home for 15 days. Afterwards, the patient will come back to the clinical center and measurements will be done with the PONTO 3 SUPER POWER on softband.
PONTO-ADHEAR
OTHERThe PONTO 3 SUPER POWER on softband will be fitted to the patient who will take it at home for 15 days. Afterwards, the patient will come back to the clinical center and measurements will be done with the PONTO 3 SUPER POWER on softband. Then the patient will be fitted with the ADHEAR system and will take it at home for 15 days. Afterwards, the patient will come back to the clinical center and measurements will be done with the ADHEAR system.
Interventions
Device: ADHEAR non-implantable bone conduction hearing aid Comparator: PONTO 3 SUPER POWER bone conduction hearing aid with softband
