Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A totally implantable hearing system for rehabilitation of hearing disorders, comprising at least one implantable sensor for picking up at least airborne sound and for converting it into electrical airborne sound signals, and at least one implantable sensor for picking up at least body sound-induced signals and for converting them into electrical body sound signals. The hearing system further comprises an electronic module including electronic means for processing and amplification of said airborne sound signals and said body sound signals. The electronic means include means for individually adjusting the ratio of airborne sound signals to body sound signals. The hearing system also comprises an output-side actuator arrangement for stimulation of the middle or inner ear, and an electrical power supply unit which supplies individual components of the system with energy.
