Approximate Synonyms

- Conductive hearing loss, middle ear
- Left middle ear conductive hearing loss
- Middle ear conductive hearing loss
- Right conductive hearing loss due to disorder of middle ear
- Right middle ear conductive hearing loss
Clinical Information
- Hearing loss caused by a problem in the outer ear or middle ear. Conductive losses usually affect all frequencies to the same degree. These losses are not usually severe.
- Hearing loss due to interference with the mechanical reception or amplification of sound to the cochlea. The interference is in the outer or middle ear involving the ear canal; tympanic membrane; or ear ossicles.
- Involves lesions of the external and middle ear resulting in malconduction of airborne sound.
