Download or read book Hearing Health Care for Adults written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The loss of hearing - be it gradual or acute, mild or severe, present since birth or acquired in older age - can have significant effects on one's communication abilities, quality of life, social participation, and health. Despite this, many people with hearing loss do not seek or receive hearing health care. The reasons are numerous, complex, and often interconnected. For some, hearing health care is not affordable. For others, the appropriate services are difficult to access, or individuals do not know how or where to access them. Others may not want to deal with the stigma that they and society may associate with needing hearing health care and obtaining that care. Still others do not recognize they need hearing health care, as hearing loss is an invisible health condition that often worsens gradually over time. In the United States, an estimated 30 million individuals (12.7 percent of Americans ages 12 years or older) have hearing loss. Globally, hearing loss has been identified as the fifth leading cause of years lived with disability. Successful hearing health care enables individuals with hearing loss to have the freedom to communicate in their environments in ways that are culturally appropriate and that preserve their dignity and function. Hearing Health Care for Adults focuses on improving the accessibility and affordability of hearing health care for adults of all ages. This study examines the hearing health care system, with a focus on non-surgical technologies and services, and offers recommendations for improving access to, the affordability of, and the quality of hearing health care for adults of all ages.

Section I begins with a description of test question types, then discusses strategies to select an answer, and finally discusses techniques to utilize when taking the Praxis. Section II covers the fundamentals of audiology: auditory and vestibular anatomy, physiology, and disorders; psychoacoustics, principles of sound, and audiometric instrumentation; as well as information regarding the development of speech and language in individuals with typical and atypical hearing. Section III further discusses audiological diagnostic techniques for adult and pediatric patients; vestibular testing and interpretation; and differential diagnosis of auditory and vestibular disorders. Section IV is a review of the screening and identification methods for hearing and balance disorders; industrial audiology; and treatment practices for amplification, implantable devices; as well as audiological counseling, and documentation. Section V concludes the book with a review of research, information on evidence-based practice, and professional topics in audiology.
