The Evolution of Cognitive Screening in Audiology: Considerations and Future Implications

Course: #36236Level: Introductory 1 Hour 14 Reviews

Cognitive screening has been discussed and recognized as an important tool of audiologic evaluation and patient care for many years. However, its use in clinical practice has remained limited and stagnant for almost as long due to a myriad of factors, including a lack of familiarity with traditional testing methods and time constraints. Lately, with the burgeoning availability of a more accessible and practical cognitive screening option, there is a new drive to standardize and formalize the role of cognitive screening as a component of audiologic patient care.Tune in for a review of related research and recommendations, current actions underway to educate and support the audiology community, and how cognitive screening underpins a new approach to more holistic, patient-centered care.

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