demping / <u>geleidingsverlies<


Explanation:
Littekenweefsel is altijd inferieur aan het originele weefsel. Het trommelvlies geeft de trillingen mechanisch door. Is het trommelvlies dus minder flexibel door littekens dan geeft dit demping van de trillingen.
Alles wat ik lees over Otitis media geeft bij fibrose het woord 'geleidingsverlies'. Het trommelvlies 'geleidt' inderdaad de trillingen naar de trommelholte.
