This two-part series covers considerations in the cochlear implant (CI) evaluation process, including outcomes, benefits, and quality of life for those with single-sided deafness (SSD). Both the adult and pediatric populations are discussed. A background on how CI utilization and perspectives for CI in SSD have changed and expanded in recent years are covered.

Pro Fit is Starkey’s professional fitting software for our current product portfolios. This course will examine advanced fitting tools and strategies to maximize patient outcomes with Starkey hearing aids. Troubleshooting basics will also be covered in this course.

By focusing on the fundamentals of sound and optimizing directionality in a new and innovative way, the Widex SmartRIC is truly smarter by design. This course reviews the new features and real-world, evidence-based benefits of this groundbreaking design.

Over the last decade, SHOEBOX® has been at the forefront of developing clinically valid audiometric testing solutions designed for use beyond the traditional confines of a sound booth. This presentation will highlight the requirements and methodologies outlined in the relevant American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards that apply to ambient noise monitoring and the specific equipment required to do so.

This course reviews the healthcare challenges that the Latino population face within the United States. It explores MED-EL’s Bilingual Program and the support this program offers to our professional partners and patients, to break down the cultural and language barriers that impact their overall success.

This course covers best practices for evaluating adult cochlear implant (CI) single-sided deafness (SSD) candidates, including the insurance elements that need to be considered with this population. Additionally, the outcomes and benefits of the technology with this population are discussed.

This course aims to highlight the importance of early fitting on softbands. The same presentation covers Softband vs. abutment and how Softband 5 has been designed to optimize sound transmission – a Softband is not “just” a softband.

The webinar provides a comprehensive analysis of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), concentrating on its diagnosis, treatment, and the physiological basis behind it. The webinar aims to deepen the understanding of BPPV's clinical manifestations and treatment protocols through detailed discussions on positional testing and canal orientation.

The purpose of this course is to discuss recent research on hearing aids and how their benefits might be realized in real world situations. Several research articles will be discussed in depth, focusing on the study rationale, methodology, results, and clinical implications.

In order to serve our patients properly we must have a solid understanding of how to fit our products to the highest level. This course will focus on some of the most common fitting challenges and how to diagnose and fix them. Occlusion, dome-vent selection, and elements of split-band directionality and mixing points are discussed.
