Study Arms (2)
Retrospective group
Data gathered from retrospective chart reviews of patients who have undergone Ponto-implantation in an out-of-OR setting from 2019 and onwards
Prospective group
Patients who have undergone Ponto implantation in an out-of-OR setting and participated in the study by filling out questionnaires.
Interventions
Ponto implantation is a surgical procedure to implant a bone-anchored hearing device, improving hearing by transmitting sound directly to the inner ear through bone conduction.
Eligibility Criteria
Bone-conduction hearing device users
You may qualify if:
- Adult subjects (≥18 years old) undergoing Ponto implantation in an out-of-OR setting from 2019 and onwards
