Clear distinction needed between proprietary and general

This article needs some rewrite to address the subject not in terms of specific brands but in terms of "bone anchored hearing aids" as a general topic. Certainly some discussion of particular examples and various types is needed but the branding needs to be removed almost entirely. - - MrBill3 (talk) 08:23, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

Imo, what this article really needs, more than any of the other issues, is a reliable, independent source to actually tell the reader if they are better than other types of hearing aid. 188.30.205.212 (talk) 23:20, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

I don't think what type of hearing aid is better should be a primary aim of this article. It should give the information about the subject. If reliable medical references make an evaluation of what type of hearing aid is better than another that information should certainly be included. I suspect there are advantages and disadvantages to various types as well as conditions and or situations for which one type is better not a one is better than another. - - MrBill3 (talk) 06:54, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

COI tag

The number of connected contibututors on this article is unbelievable. Don't have time to review everything now but this looks to the way WP:PROMO. Jytdog (talk) 03:17, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Cochlear damage

The eardrum and the small bones in the healthy middle ear transmit the sound vibrations, and small muscles quick enough to react to thunder (but not to explosions) attached to these, adjust the amount of vibrations to the cochlea. One could say that the middle ear is a kind of control mechanism for protecting nerves in the inner ear against naturally occurring sudden loud noises. Since bone conduction skips this control function, it would be nice to discuss how the different implant technologies protect the inner ear. Can anybody contribute?

I would guess that volume limiting is implicit in the design. The amplifier will simply clip the output at excessive sound levels, although designing in compression would be a trivial exercise. Stub Mandrel (talk) 07:57, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
