What is an example of conduction deafness?

An example of conduction deafness is otosclerosis, a condition where abnormal bone growth around the stapes bone in the middle ear impedes its ability to transmit sound vibrations to the inner ear. This results in a reduction in sound intensity and can lead to hearing loss. Other examples include fluid accumulation in the middle ear (otitis media) or earwax buildup, which can also block sound transmission.
