Connecting What Belongs Together

MED-EL's mission is to overcome hearing loss as a barrier to communication and quality of life. This is best fulfilled by offering a complete portfolio of hearing implants. That's why we've developed high-precision passive middle ear implants (PMEIs) and added them to our portfolio.

We’ve put over two decades of experience in hearing solutions and ear surgery into our range of passive middle ear implants. The result? A sophisticated design that combines efficient sound transmission with easy surgical handling. And with 16 adaptable prostheses to choose from, there’s a solution to suit both your surgical preferences and your patient’s individual anatomy.

Optimal Sound Conduction

Our range of passive middle ear implants is made up of prostheses for both tympanoplasty and stapes surgery. The tympanoplasty prostheses act as a partial or total replacement for the ossicular chain. Our stapes prostheses replace the stapes arch or stapes arch and incus in cases with a fixed stapes footplate.

Like all of MED-EL’s hearing solutions, our passive middle ear implants are built with hearing performance in mind. Made of titanium, they are both lightweight and extremely stiff for optimal sound conduction to the oval window and into the inner ear, so that your patients can experience the joy of hearing.

Straightforward Surgery

We’ve drawn on all our expertise in otology to make surgery with each and every one of our passive middle ear implants as straightforward as possible. Not only are they designed to give you optimal visibility of the surgery but they are also designed for easy handling. And all our implants can be adapted to the patient’s individual anatomy during implantation for extra flexibility.
