Hearing Intervention and Cognition: Review of the Evidence and Current Trials
Oticon Medical CEU courses
Presented by Victoria Sanchez, AuD, PhD
Recorded Webinar
Course: #35142Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Hearing loss is associated with decreased health-related quality of life, accelerated cognitive decline, and dementia. Cognition may be amenable to comprehensive hearing rehabilitative treatment consisting of the use of hearing technologies (hearing aids, Osseointegrated devices, and other assistive devices) and rehabilitative training. However, there are no randomized controlled trials to definitely show that hearing intervention can reduce the rate of cognitive decline. Furthermore, little is known about the different types, degrees, and configurations of hearing loss and how that may influence cognitive outcomes. A review of evidence and current studies will be provided.
