The fitting assistant is a feature in the EXPRESSfit Pro fitting software designed to help with fine-tuning of hearing instruments. This course will go over new feature additions and new adjustments that add even more flexibility and precision to how sound quality complaints are addressed.

There are so many components to quality patient care that it is challenging to “master” them all. What if you could come together with other professionals who possess knowledge or experience that could help you or your practice? There are a number of veteran audiologists as well as rising professionals who have wisdom, qualifications, narratives, and unique journeys to share. The purpose of this talk is to rethink the traditional mentor/mentee vertical relationship and explore collaboration in the form of circle…where all professionals, regardless of age or experience, learn from each other.

Telehealth applications like Starkey’s TeleHear synchronous remote programming feature provide opportunities to delight patients and professionals.

Menière Disease (MD) and Vestibular Migraine (VM) are the 2 most common causes of episodic vertigo. Diagnosis of both disorders is based on clinical history and on audiometric exam showing, in Menière Disease, sensorineural low-frequency hearing loss. At onset, differential diagnosis is often a puzzling dilemma, considering that around 50% of MD subjects also experience migraine, and VM patients, in many cases, report cochlear symptoms during attacks. Recent works propose that according to phenotypes and comorbidities, MD could be differentiated into subgroups, each presenting peculiarities for onset and evolution, MD with migraine among them. Other authors proposed a similar work for VM patients. In this webinar, Dr. R. Teggi examines clinical and etiological conditions commonly shared.

This course will review forensic audiology as an area of practice. Topics include forensic audiology in general, the expectations of attorneys in hiring expert witnesses, discussions of the differences in criminal and civil cases, and the progression of civil cases as well as case examples.
