Who is Denis?
This month in 20Q, Contributing Editor Dr. Gus Mueller himself is in the hot seat with our Question Man. He's covering a topic that's critical to hearing care: fitting hearing aids using an evidence-based approach that's recommended by all best practice guidelines around the world. An evidence-based approach also results in optimum audibility and higher patient satisfaction. Yet, only a small minority of professionals who actually fit hearing aids use such an approach. Why is this, what are the implications, and who is Denis? Find the answers to these questions and 20 more in this month's 20Q: Today’s Use of Validated Prescriptive Methods for Fitting Hearing Aids—What Would Denis Say?
June OAE Series
We are excited to work with Dr. Jay Hall on a 3-course series on otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) on June 10, 17 and 24. Dr. Hall designed this series to be a comprehensive guide covering the why's and how's of using this clinical tool based on the latest evidence. Both audiology students and advanced practitioners can expect to find important clinical take-aways from this practical series taught by arguably one of audiology's most gifted teachers. Register now for one or more courses.
Fifty Shades of Grey, NIHL, BPPV and More!
Ethics is rarely a favorite subject to teach or learn about, but we all recognize its importance to our profession. We are thrilled to have none other than Ohio State University's Dr. Gail Whitelaw to present Fifty Shades of Grey - Ethics and Audiology on June 3 at noon EDT. Please join us for what will surely be an interesting and informative discussion (even without Christian and Anastasia).
Every July, Guest Editor Dr. Brian Fligor invites an eclectic group of presenters to discuss various hot topics in noise-induced hearing loss. This year's series is shaping up to be another great collection of courses - stay tuned for more details!
Thank you to Dr. Karen Lambert who recently recorded a course covering evidence-based overview of BPPV assessment and treatment, to add to our growing library of new vestibular courses. The course is now available for on-demand viewing.
It feels like I've only skimmed the surface of all the exciting happenings on AudiologyOnline this month! Thank you for viewing, reading and all of your feedback that helps shape our courses and content. Have a great month!
Cheers,
Carolyn
