20Q: Hearing Loss, Hearing Aids and Dementia - Don’t Let the Science be Hijacked by Hype
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Kevin J. Munro, PhD, MSc, Piers Dawes, PhD
Text/Transcript
Course: #39571Level: Intermediate1 Hour
There is an association between hearing loss and cognitive decline, and hearing loss is also a risk factor for dementia. This course reviews the evidence that hearing loss causes dementia and treating hearing loss reduces the risk of dementia.

Variability in Hearing Aid Outcomes and the Role of Mild Cognitive Impairment
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Hannah Glick, AuD, PhD, CCC-A
Recorded Webinar
Course: #39581Level: Advanced1 Hour
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.

Engaging Families in Continuing to Improve EHDI Programs, in partnership with American Cochlear Implant Alliance
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Karl R. White, PhD
Recorded Webinar
Course: #39458Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Permanent hearing loss affects 2-3 per 1,000 newborns. When not identified early in life, children who are deaf or hard of hearing lag behind their peers in language, social, and cognitive development, fail more frequently in school, and have difficulty being successfully employed. Family engagement has been critical in the development of Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) that have made it possible for most children who are deaf or hard of hearing to develop similarly to their peers with typical hearing. However, a number of challenges and opportunities for improvement remain. This presentation summarizes the history of newborn hearing screening, describes the current status, and discusses some of the important challenges and emerging issues that could be addressed to further improve early identification of childhood hearing loss. Lessons learned over the past decades, recent advances based on research and policy initiatives, and the crucial role of families will be used to highlight how various stakeholders (e.g., health care providers, public health officials, parents, and educators) can continue to improve outcomes for children who are deaf or hard of hearing.

Leveraging New Technology to Help Parents Foster Rich Language Environments, in partnership with American Cochlear Implant Alliance
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Dana Suskind, MD
Recorded Webinar
Course: #39457Level: Intermediate1 Hour
In this session, Dr. Dana Suskind discusses how artificial intelligence, machine learning, and other emerging technologies can be used to better understand and, thus, optimize the role that parents play in promoting early language and cognitive development in children with hearing loss and children with typical hearing. Dr. Suskind covers the existing literature on foundational brain development and language skill acquisition, with an emphasis on the crucial role that parents and caregivers play in this process. She also identifies gaps in our collective knowledge on this topic and explains how technology can help fill those gaps. Finally, she shares several examples of tools being developed at the University of Chicago's TMW Center for Early Learning + Public Health that will help individual parents boost their children’s foundational development—and also allow society to better support all parents in this essential task.

ACHIEVE Randomized Trial: Hearing Intervention to Delay Cognitive Decline
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Jennifer A. Deal, PhD
Recorded Webinar
Course: #39041Level: Introductory1 Hour
This course reviews the design and results of the Aging and Cognitive Health Evaluation in Elders (ACHIEVE) randomized clinical trial, which tested if a best-practices hearing intervention vs. health education control delays cognitive older in older adults with untreated hearing loss over 3 years. Results are contextualized within a broader discussion of the strengths and limitations of the randomized controlled design, with emphasis on how to discuss study findings with patients and research questions that remain unanswered.
