Hearing Evaluation Adults CEU Courses

AB is excited to offer a five-part series that focuses on empowering patients and creating more efficient practices. Join us for part two of this series to learn about efficiencies in CI counseling and evaluation, and how accessible digital tools can empower patients. 

This article reviews the necessary components of an interventional audiology program. Tips for the provision of effective care are provided.

Patients undergoing ototoxic medical treatments often do not have access to hearing testing which could help prevent permanent, disabling hearing loss. This webinar provides insights into the challenges faced by these patients, reviews the critical need to integrate audiological services into their care, and discusses how automated audiometry can help bridge this gap in hearing healthcare.

This Grand Rounds session focuses on adult cases that incorporate a broad range of considerations in medical aspects of audiology and areas of health literacy and the interactions between hearing loss and speech impairment.

Hearing healthcare is not a siloed profession and we depend on our network of practitioners to improve the outcomes of our patients. This Grand Rounds presents cases where referrals helped, or would have helped, patients in achieving their best outcomes.

This course is designed to educate audiologists on the practical workflow for patients who require cochlear implants. From Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved indications and Medicare requirements to pre-op and post-op evaluations, audiologists will gain a clear understanding of the cochlear implant process.

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.

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 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 examines the impact of hearing treatment in adults on aspects of overall health and well-being, with a particular focus on adults with hearing loss who are at risk for mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Through this course, we will illuminate the role of cognitive screening in audiology clinical practice and the ways in which cognitive screening can aid in clinical decision making and the treatment and rehabilitation process.
