Hearing Evaluation Adults CEU Courses

This course focuses on the interdisciplinary approach to managing central auditory processing disorder (CAPD)/deficits across the lifespan. Specifically, the effectiveness of CAPD management strategies is discussed, with supporting evidence from peer-reviewed literature.

This course focuses on the interdisciplinary approach to diagnosing central auditory processing disorder (CAPD)/deficits across the lifespan. Specific topics include the determination of candidacy for central auditory processing evaluations, test selection and scoring, interpretation of results, and making meaningful connections between a patient’s evaluation results to their subjectively reported auditory and communication challenges.

This course discusses the construct of listening-related fatigue and its relevance to adults and children with hearing loss. We also describe the Vanderbilt Fatigue Scales, a suite of subjective measures designed to assess listening-related fatigue, and briefly discuss possible mitigation strategies for reducing the impact of listening-related fatigue in those most affected.

This two-part series explores the current state of teleaudiology today, from practice to legislation. Part 1 provides an overview of teleaudiology clinical provision, including implementation and challenges using real-world examples. Part 2 provides an overview of the law and the landscape surrounding teleaudiology and guidance for navigating the future.

This course introduces audiologists to the concepts of Whole Health – an evidence-based, multi-disciplinary, personalized, Veteran-driven approach that empowers and equips Veterans to take charge of their health and well-being, live life to the fullest, and participate in their health decisions. The application to hearing loss/tinnitus/balance is discussed.

This course presents current scientific understanding of the effects of untreated hearing loss and hearing treatment on neurocognitive function and well-being.

This course will help audiologists and vestibular providers alike solidify their knowledge of obtaining a case history and other patient information that is useful for vestibular testing. Asking more direct questions, determining candidacy, using functional assessment tools, helping to appropriately counsel, and clinical considerations for testing are covered in this course.

This course presents fundamental concepts for the assessment and interpretation of wideband measures, including a review of acoustic impedance and its relation to the mass, stiffness, and resistance components of the middle ear. The interpretation of absorbance measured at ambient pressure and pressurized conditions (wideband tympanometry) in ears is described using clinical case examples.
