Outcome measures\n were complications, explantations, and revisions and the mean time of implant use. Audiological results were assessed as well. Outcomes were evaluated for devices implanted with BCI Lifts and compared with those implanted without lifts. <jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>\u2003In the study period, 13 out of\n a total of 54 implantations were conducted using one or two 1- to 4-mm BCI Lifts. During the follow-up period, two complications occurred and both in patients implanted without lifts (2\/41; 4.9%). All patients in the lifts group were using the implant at the end of observation period. No statistically\n significant difference was observed in functional hearing gain or word-recognition improvement at 65\u2009dB between two groups. <jats:bold>Conclusions<\/jats:bold>\u2003The use of BCI Lifts in Bonebridge implantations was not associated with adverse events during the observation period. The clinical\n follow-up revealed no complications in implantations requiring lifts. Furthermore, the functional hearing gain and the word-recognition improvement did not differ from those of devices implanted without lifts. Data indicate safety and efficacy for Bonebridge implantations using lifts.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0041-1723038","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,2]],"date-time":"2021-06-02T00:47:34Z","timestamp":1622594854000},"page":"290-294","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Safety and Efficacy of Implantation of the Bonebridge Active Transcutaneous Bone-Conduction Device Using Implant Lifts"],"prefix":"10.3766","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Faris F.","family":"Brkic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dominik","family":"Riss","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christoph","family":"Arnoldner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rudolfs","family":"Liepins","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wolfgang","family":"Gst\u00f6ttner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wolf-Dieter","family":"Baumgartner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erich","family":"Vyskocil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2087","reference":[{"issue":"04","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1835","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405-016-4228-6","article-title":"Safety and effectiveness of the Bonebridge transcutaneous active direct-drive bone-conduction hearing implant at 1-year device use","volume":"274","author":"S Schmerber","year":"2017","journal-title":"Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"132","DOI":"10.1017\/S0022215109991708","article-title":"Complications of bone-anchored hearing aid implantation","volume":"124","author":"J C Hobson","year":"2010","journal-title":"J Laryngol Otol"},{"issue":"06","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"749","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijporl.2011.01.018","article-title":"Complications of bone-anchored hearing aids in pediatric patients","volume":"75","author":"T Kraai","year":"2011","journal-title":"Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"272","DOI":"10.1016\/S0194-5998(00)70255-5","article-title":"Evaluation of implant losses and skin reactions around extraoral bone-anchored implants: a 0- to 8-year follow-up","volume":"122","author":"R A Reyes","year":"2000","journal-title":"Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg"},{"issue":"01","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"57","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0000000000000881","article-title":"Mastoid dimensions in children and young adults: consequences for the geometry of transcutaneous bone-conduction implants","volume":"37","author":"T Rahne","year":"2016","journal-title":"Otol Neurotol"},{"issue":"12","key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"4103","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405-016-3972-y","article-title":"Postoperative pain in patients undergoing a transcutaneous active bone conduction implant (Bonebridge)","volume":"273","author":"L Lassaletta","year":"2016","journal-title":"Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol"},{"issue":"05","key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1033","DOI":"10.1111\/coa.12793","article-title":"Dura and sinus compression with a transcutaneous bone conduction device -
