Powerfully Small.

Market research shows that bone conduction recipients prioritize both the ability to hear in noisy environments and a compact design.8 To address these needs and provide a powerful yet discreet device, we first introduced the Cochlear™ Baha® 6 Max Sound Processor.

The launch of the Cochlear Baha 7 Sound Processor continues this focus, offering a sound processor that delivers the same strong hearing performance you’ve come to expect from Cochlear – now with even more ways to stream than ever before.

Discreet, streamlined profile

The new LowPro™ snap coupling streamlines the device by 2mm5* to make the already small sound processor even more discreet.

Baha Fitting Software 7

With Baha Fitting Software 7 comes enhanced data logging to display how the patient has used the sound processor. This information can help you discover usage patterns which may assist you in patient counselling and help you make decisions on fitting adjustments. Data logging is divided into four tabs, Overview, Programs, Environments and Streaming. Get a quick overview of your patient’s average daily and total use time, program use, which environments they have been in, and which streaming accessories (including phone) the user has used.

Additionally, Baha Fitting Software 7 introduces the DSL-BCD prescription and the Technical Measurement workflow. The built-in VerifitLINK™ integration in BFS 7 offers the possibility to seamlessly verify the fitting of the Baha 7 Sound Processor and automatically adjust it to the target curve.

Finally, you continue to have access to Remote Assist in Baha Fitting Software 7, which allows you to engage with your patient remotely for the purpose of performing a remote fitting or adjustment of their sound processor(s). More specifically, Remote Assist allows you to 1) communicate with your patient via live audio, video, and chat, 2) remotely connect to your patients sound processor(s), and 3) perform both first fit and follow-up adjustments to your patients sound processor(s).#
