For many hearing-impaired individuals, the benefits of conventional amplification may be limited by acoustic feedback, occlusion effect, and/or ear discomfort. The MAXUM system and other implantable hearing devices have been developed as an option for patients who derive inadequate assistance from traditional HAs, but who are not yet candidates for cochlear implants. The MAXUM system is based on the SOUNDTEC Direct System technology, which has been shown to provide improved functional gain as well as reduced feedback and occlusion effect compared to hearing aids. This and other implantable hearing devices may have increasing importance as future aural rehabilitation options.
