Vibrant Soundbridge / VORP
The Vibrant® Soundbridge® is a implantable middle ear hearing device intended to restore hearing to patients with either conductive or sensorineural hearing loss. The Soundbridge® converts sound into mechanical energy that is directly transferred to the auditory ossicles. It consists of two major components:
1) the implant, called the Vibrating Ossicular Prosthesis (VORP)
2) the external amplification system, called the Audio Processor.
The VORP device is 100% digital and is programmed by an Audiologist to fit the user's specific hearing loss.
