SUMMARY:Unveiling the Truth About Cochlear Implants
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Meredith Holcomb\, AuD \nCEUs: 0.1 AAA / Tier 1 CEUs \nDuration: 60 minutes \nInstructional Level: Intermediate \nProgram Focus: Knowledge \nDescription: \nThe utilization rate for cochlear implants in the U.S. adult population is 2-12 percent. In large part\, this is due to ambiguity and confusion of cochlear implant (CI) candidacy amongst all hearing-health-care providers (audiologists\, physicians\, and hearing instrument specialists). Patients who need a CI often spend many years in hearing aids that are not providing adequate amplification and speech understanding. This webinar will cover how to identify CI candidates in your practice\, when to refer patients for CI evaluation\, and how to counsel patients through this process. Current CI technology\, candidacy\, and evidence-based outcome data will be discussed. Resources and tools for patients will be outlined\, and case studies will be used to demonstrate CI outcomes. \nLearning Outcomes: \n1. Participants will be able to identify patients who should be referred for a formal CI evaluation. \n2. Participants will be able to understand current FDA CI criteria for adults. \n3. Participants will be able to describe benefits of CI over hearing aids. \nRegister Now
