Question
- What is the clinical effectiveness of non-invasive bone conduction hearing devices for patients with unilateral or bilateral conductive hearing loss?
- What is the cost-effectiveness of non-invasive bone conduction hearing devices for patients with unilateral or bilateral conductive hearing loss?
- What are the evidence-based guidelines regarding the use of non-invasive bone conduction hearing devices for patients with unilateral or bilateral conductive hearing loss?
Key Message
One randomized controlled trial and four non-randomized studies were identified regarding the clinical effectiveness of non-invasive bone conduction hearing devices for patients with unilateral or bilateral conductive hearing loss. Additionally, no relevant economic evaluations or evidence-based guidelines were identified regarding the cost-effectiveness and use of non-invasive bone conduction hearing devices for patients with unilateral or bilateral conductive hearing loss.
