conductive, mixed hearing
loss and single-sided
sensorineural deafness
(SSD).
• Patients should have
sufficient bone quality
and quantity to support
successful implant
placement.
• The Osia System is
indicated for patients with
up to 55 dB SNHL.
Clinical benefit
Most recipients of a bone
conduction hearing solution
will experience improved
hearing performance and
quality of life compared to
unaided listening.

Intended use
The Cochlear™ Osia® System uses bone conduction to transmit
sounds to the cochlea (inner ear) with the purpose of enhancing
hearing. The Cochlear Osia 2 Aqua+ is intended to be used as an
accessory to the Cochlear Osia 2 Sound Processor. To maintain
reasonable hearing above water in situations when there is a risk
of water immersion of the sound processor, it creates a water tight
and dust proof seal.
