Hearing Aids Children CEU Courses

For children who are not candidates for air conduction hearing aids, bone conduction hearing devices are available. Unfortunately, fitting protocols are not well developed for these devices. This is challenging for pediatric audiologists who rely on objective measures of hearing devices to support their patient’s communication development. Bone conduction hearing devices and candidacy considerations for the pediatric population will be reviewed. Findings from a clinical survey will be offered to inform the current practices for fitting these devices in children.

The purpose of this program is to give pediatric hearing healthcare professionals knowledge of how precisely Widex hearing instruments meet AAA pediatric guidelines by providing children with superior sound quality using specialized features and options.
