Moderated by Dr. Catherine Palmer, this roundtable discussion brings together 5 industry experts from leading hearing aid (Oticon, Resound, Starkey, Unitron) and cochlear implant companies (MED-EL), as part of the 2021 Industry Innovations Summit. The evidence behind new amplification technologies and their practical benefits for professionals and patients will be addressed in a dynamic roundtable discussion format.

Hearing with two ears provides several binaural advantages to the listener including sound localization and a sense of balance between the ears. A new feature within the MED-EL fitting software aligns the processing delay of the cochlear implant with the hearing aid to allow bimodal recipients enhanced binaural advantages regardless of hearing aid type or style.

This course is part of the 2021 Industry Innovations Summit on AudiologyOnline.

This 4 part webinar series is focused on expanding adult cochlear implant access and outcomes. ACIA executive director Donna Sorkin, along with a team of leading experts, present on a range of topics including: advocacy, services for veterans, assisting cochlear implants patients for whom English is a second language, and music enjoyment for cochlear implant recipients.

There are three components of sound, frequency, intensity and timing. When ears are receiving sound differently, as in a bimodal listening situation with a cochlear implant patient, it’s important to match all three components giving bimodal patients improved opportunities for hearing in noise, localizing sounds and feeling more balanced overall.
