The Audiant Bone Conductor has been heralded as an aid for use in conductive hearing loss; however, its possible use in unilateral sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) has also been proposed. Between July 1987 and July 1989, profound unilateral sensorineural hearing loss has been rehabilitated in 43 patients using the Xomed Audiant Bone Conductor. Patients who were willing to participate in this clinical trial and who were felt to be good contralateral routing of signals (CROS) aid candidates were selected preoperatively. Audiometric followup, selection criteria, patient satisfaction, and complications are discussed.
