There could also be multiple permutations and combinations like moderate mixed hearing loss or severe conductive hearing loss. In addition, the hearing loss could be unilateral or bilateral. While cochlear implants were devised for bilateral profound sensorineural hearing loss, various other devices have been invented for other types of hearing losses. Research continues to design a suitable implant which would amplify sound for patients who cannot be candidates for cochlear implants.OtorhinolaryngologyNeurology RehabilitationOtorhinolaryngologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H46007Neurologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H36001Rehabilitationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H55006Otorhinolaryngology.Neurology .Rehabilitation.Otorhinolaryngology.Neurology.Rehabilitation.617.8617.80592Mankekar Gauriedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300061803321Implantable Hearing Devices other than Cochlear Implants1521779UNINA
