Hearing Evaluation Children CEU Courses

This course is designed to educate audiologists about their roles in the EHDI process. This includes reporting state mandated results to EHDI in Oklahoma, referring to other providers and programs as needed, and ensuring best practices and family-centered care.

Concussions are diffuse brain injuries that affect multiple organ systems, including sensory systems in the brain. In this course, Dr. Kraus will show that the auditory system is a common, but underappreciated, locus of disruption following a concussion.

This course will provide new diagnostic approaches and remediation strategies for hearing difficulties that are currently undetected. Participants will also receive a review of current tools that may be used in clinics to evaluate auditory speech discrimination skills in infants and toddlers.

This course begins by providing estimates of the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ASD and hearing loss as well as strategies to obtain a valid hearing test from children with this disorder. The remainder of the course focuses on assessing and managing common auditory difficulties faced by children with ASD and normal hearing sensitivity. Strategies to mitigate listening difficulties include school accommodations, remote-microphone technology, and auditory training.

This course is presented by faculty and AuD students at The Ohio State University. Five challenging pediatric cases that incorporate current evidence and perspectives of patient care will be discussed. Each case provides “take-home” messages to incorporate into clinical practice.

This course describes how to create a tele-audiology infrastructure for the diagnostic assessment of infants by providing specific examples from the South Dakota Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) program. Strategies for overcoming existing and current challenges will be discussed.

GSI has a number of product updates to our product line. This presentation will review the new features and protocols available in 2021.

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

Despite ASHA best practices including 3 and 6 kHz, these frequencies are often skipped during routine pure-tone testing. This course reviews why inclusion of these frequencies is considered best practice and presents clinical cases where significant notches went undetected in both children and adults.**Please note the live webinar is 4pm ET / 1 pm PT**

Measuring hyperacusis in children is an important skill for the audiologist. Using an adapted Loudness Discomfort Level (LDL) assessment protocol provides valuable information and treatment progress data points. Hyperacusis is an unusual condition that can be present in pediatric populations and deserves attention and professional assessment.

The course reviews the terminology, psychological aspects, and characteristics of persons displaying a false and exaggerated hearing loss (FEHL). It also gives specific techniques for interviewing, screening, counseling, and referring for psychosocial problems.
