CEU Courses

This course will provide information on clinical considerations for Bone Conduction Hearing Devices (BCHDs) in the pediatric population. Both non-surgical and surgical options will be discussed with a focus on transitioning patients from a softband to surgical BCHD.

This course is designed to present new key evidence related to the use of Oticon Ponto 4 Bone Anchored Hearing System in the pediatric population. This course will demonstrate how signal processing in the Ponto 4 (OpenSound Navigator) differs from traditional signal processing strategies, and how these differences open the possibility of signal processing at younger ages.

This webinar provides participants with clinical evidence on the benefits of direct sound transmission and best practices in counseling the patient throughout their journey to receiving a Ponto System.

This webinar will discuss a clinical test protocol for evaluating and comparing adult patient benefit of a bone anchored system(s) during an acute simulation appointment.

This webinar will focus on providing participants with an overview of Remote care Services and Programs from Oticon Medical designed to empower bone-anchored patients.

This webinar will provide participants with an introduction to the EduMic, another innovative technology from Oticon Medical which supports better hearing in challenging environments. Participants will learn about the features and benefits of this new wireless accessory. They will also hear from those who have had the opportunity to use it with children in the classroom.

This webinar will discuss the latest innovations and clinical evidence in sound processing with the Ponto Sound Processors. Specifically, the participants will learn about how BrainHearingTM is supported through our latest sound processing platforms and the important role that direct sound transmission plays in patient outcomes.

This webinar will focus on providing participants with an overview of the Minimally Invasive Ponto Surgery (MIPS) procedure and how this advanced and innovative technique has improved patient care and outcomes with bone-anchored devices.

This course will provide a basis for understanding candidacy and completing a pre-operative evaluation of Bone Anchored Hearing Systems (BAHS), including the newest Ponto 4 and the Ponto 3 Super Power. Topics will also include mixed/conductive hearing loss and Single-Sided Deafness, device selection, determining the need for an at-home trial experience and counseling tools along with resources that will aid in informed patient decision making.

Hearing loss is associated with decreased health-related quality of life, accelerated cognitive decline, and dementia. Cognition may be amenable to comprehensive hearing rehabilitative treatment consisting of the use of hearing technologies (hearing aids, Osseointegrated devices, and other assistive devices) and rehabilitative training. However, there are no randomized controlled trials to definitely show that hearing intervention can reduce the rate of cognitive decline. Furthermore, little is known about the different types, degrees, and configurations of hearing loss and how that may influence cognitive outcomes. A review of evidence and current studies will be provided.
