Abstract: The invention concerns a hearing aid system that comprises an ear canal member comprising a sensor arrangement. The sensor arrangement comprises at least one surface electrode located at a surface of said ear canal member to allow said at least one surface electrode to contact the skin of a user when said ear canal member is operationally mounted on the user. The at least one surface electrode (150) is adapted to pick up a low voltage electric signal from the user's skin. The sensor arrangement further comprises a light sensor (180) located at a surface of said housing to allow emitting light through skin proximate to the light sensor (180) and capturing reflected and/or scattered light when said ear canal member is operationally mounted on the user.The hearing aid system further comprises a sensor signal processing unit (170) that is connected to the surface electrode (150) and the light sensor (180) and that is configured to generate one or more sensor signals from each respective output signal of the at least one surface electrode (150) and the light sensor (180).The hearing aid system further comprises or is connected to an evaluation unit (300) that is configured to generate an electrocardiogram-representing signal (ECG) from low voltage electric signals picked-up by the at least one surface electrode (150) and a plethysmographic-curve-representing signal from an output signal of the light sensor (180).

Abstract: A binaural hearing system comprises a) left and right hearing devices, e.g. hearing aids, adapted for being worn at or in left and right ears, respectively, of a user, or for being fully or partially implanted in the head at the left and right ears, respectively, of the user, each of the left and right hearing devices comprising a1) a number NS of different sensors Si (i=1, . . . , NS), each sensor being configured to monitor a physiological function of the user and providing respective left and right sensor signals STi,left, STi,right (i=1, . . . , NS), indicative of the state of the physiological function in question; a2) electric circuitry to provide that information signals, including said sensor signals can be exchanged between the left and right hearing devices and/or forwarded to an auxiliary device, b) a comparison unit for comparing said left and right sensor signals, and providing respective comparison signals CSli (i=1, . . . , NS) for each of said physiological functions; and c) an analysis unit for analyzing said comparison signals and providing a concluding stroke indicator CSI regarding a risk of stroke of the user depending on said comparison signal(s). Thereby an improved functionality of a hearing system may be provided allowing an early warning of a stroke of a wearer of the hearing system.
