What else can I help you with?
Can conduction deafness result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve?
Yes the result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve is sensorineural deafness. The result from the fusion of the ossicles is conduction deafness.
Is total nerve deafness correctable with hearing aids?
No, only conduction deafness is correctable with hearing aids
If your hammer anvil and stirrup become brittle or damaged what happens to the the ear?
conduction deafness may occur.
What form of deafness is caused by disease to the three tiny bones to the inner ear?
conduction deafness
What form deafness is caused by disease to the three tiny bones of the inner ear?
conduction deafness
What forms of deafness is caused by disease to the three tiny bones of the inner ear?
conduction deafness
What diagnostic tests are used to determine conduction deafness?
One test used to determine conduction deafness is Weber's Test. A fork is vibrated against the forehead and should be heard equally in both ears. If it is heard best in the 'good' ear than it is sensorineural deafness but if it is heard best in the 'bad' ear then this is what determines the conduction deafness.

What is the difference between conduction deafness and perceptive deafness?
Conductive deafness is when the sound waves are prevented from reaching the inner ear. It can be because of wax in the outer canal, fluid inside it, or the tiny bones in the ear have seized up. With perceptive deafness, sound waves can reach the inner ear, though it is a disease of the nerves leading to the brain or a condition affecting the function of the inner ear. Most cases of deafness fall into the category of conductive and perceptive deafness, though other cases of deafness are as simple as the result of old age.
Which of these is an example of nerve deafness?
tinnitus
Sound heard in one ear but not in the other during bone and air conduction?
conduction deafness
Explain the difference between conductive and nerve deafness?
Conductive deafness is caused by the bones in the middle ear to pass on sound vibrations to the inner ear. Nerve deafness may be caused by a disease or some other event that injures the cochlear nerve.
