Our promise The magical world of sound

Because sound matters

Our promise

The magical world of sound

Sound is a fundamental part of daily life that opens up a world of wonder. Sound and hearing are the key to human development and interaction. Sound is the way we understand, recognise and socialise with other people. In short, to hear is to live. Imagine a world without sound, without being able to hear, without being able to interact.

At Oticon Medical, we are passionate about using our combined expertise and resources to open up the world of sound to as many people as possible.

We do so because we appreciate that when it comes to quality of life, sound and sound quality matter.

Our commitment

To deliver on this promise and to realise our ambition, we have defined five focus areas where our passion and commitment come together. With this focus, we will ensure that no one with a hearing problem receives a less than optimal solution. Because we understand just how much sound matters.

  • Understanding patients
    Understanding Patients

    People are our starting point.

     

    People First

    At Oticon Medical, our founding philosophy is "People First". This is a direct heritage from our origins in Oticon, and it can be seen in our passion for working closely with patients, seeking to understand their hearing needs and how their hearing loss affects their lives.

     

    Constantly striving to achieve greater insight

    Although we are dedicated to developing innovative technologies, we know that technology alone cannot provide the quality of sound our users require. That’s why all of our research takes place in close partnership with real patients and clinics. By involving end users and by working collaboratively with patient associations and online user groups, we can take our theoretical knowledge and add the practical insight that ensures our new innovations meet patient needs and help them to overcome the challenges they face in their daily lives. Patients are at the centre of our attention, and we will always listen to, involve and support them — not only new patients, but also those who were treated with Neurelec implants in the past.

    Research is at the heart of our work to improve patient outcomes in hearing implant technology. Our team of experts works closely with university hospitals and leading academic research institutions, including Oticon’s renowned Eriksholm Research Centre, as well as with patients and hearing healthcare professionals. This allows us to stay at the forefront of research while being able to assess the impact of our ideas with real people in real-life situations.

    As part of the world’s leading group of hearing healthcare companies, we have full control of all design, validation and manufacturing processes.

    Our more than 100 years of history within hearing means we have built up significant knowledge and understanding of core technologies within advanced sound processing, coding strategies, micro-mechanics, integrated circuit design, software design, wireless connectivity, audiology and hearing performance. Implant technology experience: Add to that three decades of hearing implant experience, where we continue to develop and improve the most minimally invasive implant systems and innovative time-saving and safe surgical procedures, and you have a powerhouse within the hearing performance industry.

    Tools to support the entire patient journey, from pre-operative evaluation to rehabilitation.

     

    Safe and reliable tools

    In order to provide each patient with the optimal hearing solution, we are committed to supporting all stages of the clinical process. We provide the right implant design and surgical tools for reliable, efficient and safe surgical procedures. And once surgery is complete, our fitting solutions aim to combine ease of use with flexibility and high performance. Furthermore, our ambition is to provide diagnostic tools to support the whole process, from identification to implantation, fitting and validation.

     

    Supporting the entire patient journey

    We also work to develop tools that support patients all the way from pre-operative evaluation to rehabilitation, and we work closely with the respected IDA Institute to foster a better understanding of the entire patient journey. This enables our clinical partners to offer their patients the best possible experience.
