At least 75% of the patients reached a maximum phoneme score of 70%. For patients with lower scores, the superpower device still provides a substantial hearing benefit. This makes the superpower device particularly suitable for patients with severe-to-profound mixed hearing loss with a contraindication for conventional hearing aids and/or cochlear implants.
