Holly presented her material in a thorough and clear manner on a topic that tends to be very complicated. As mentioned this area is changing day by day and I do hope that audiology on line will have her back periodically to update us.

Had a lot of interesting research and data that can be referenced when considering why a child might not be making the progress you or the family hoped they would.

The topic
by
Member
on
March 19, 2017
For someone who has not encountered many ANSD infants, I recently diagnosed two infants, ranging from 1mo - 6mos. This study offered a well organized review of the hallmark findings of ANSD and approach to future evaluations, specifically focusing on behavioral auditory information, which likely will take a while before the patient is capable of providing such subjective findings.
by
Member

March 10, 2017
I learned a lot of information that I did not know before. I work with one student who has ANSD, so I found this helpful in understanding this condition.
by

It was very straightforward and delivered in terminology and a structure that was easy to understand. It held my attention for the duration of the presentation, because it was interesting and timely, and very applicable!

I needed an update regarding the uses of CIs in ANSD, so this was very appropriate to meeting that need.
by
Brandy

ANSD is one of those areas of practice that doesn't get any attention until you have a kiddo with ANSD then you're trying to find every resource you can because intervention can be such a challenge. This was a great presentation of facts and resources and also a great reminder of why I'm serving on the intervention end. That fine-tuned audiology science makes my brain cramp. ;)

The information was very thorough. The research and ANSD pediatric cases gave strong insight to specific children with CIs.

It is just so applicable to my practice right now. I went from being in the classroom, to working one on one with families in parent-infant. The counseling portion was helpful.

Course was good. The test was poor. On question 8, options b and c are grammatically incorrect. The material presented supported the ideas behind options B, C, and E. Of which, E was the only one that was grammatically correct. but it stated that C was correct.

Good information, with a very good handout. I just wish there were a little more explanation of some of the terms used in the later slides, as that was gone over too quickly to fully absorb.

by

Data presented on temporal and spectral deficiencies supports my clinical observations that children with ANSD tend to do well with early auditory skills that are redundant or steady state sounds (eg. Learning to Listen sounds, or noticing environmental sounds such as engine sounds, bells, music) but have significant difficulty with discrimination of words, phrases and sentences with highly variable and rapid changes in phonemes. Loved this detailed analysis and evidence - perfect marriage between clinical practice and research!

I gained much more knowledge about ANSD than I had before but a portion of the text was above my head and it would've taken a great deal of time to look up all of the words I didn't know to be able to completely understand it.
