Abstract

A hybrid BTE and CIC hearing aid has a BTE component which is worn behind the patient's ear and a CIC component which is worn in the bony portion of the patient's ear canal. The BTE and CIC components are connected together with a wire cable. Electroacoustic feedback is reduced or eliminated, allowing gain to be increased. The patient is not disturbed by the occlusion effect.
