Diagnosing Why? The importance of knowing the cause of a child's hearing loss featuring Eliot Shearer, MD

2023-10-03

EarWorm Episode 003 with William Eiserman, Ph.D. and Eliot Shearer, MD

Increased availability of quality early hearing screening and diagnostic services over the last several decade has been revolutionary. With an early identification of hearing loss parents are able to make important decisions about how to ensure their child will have access to language, one way or another, so that they can thrive in all areas of development. Current technology is also making it increasingly easier to determine the cause of a hearing loss. When the cause of a hearing loss is able to be determined, it can sometimes help to predict the stability of the current hearing status, whether changes in hearing are likely to occur in the future, as well as to anticipate emerging concern in other areas of health or development. Host: William Eiserman, Ph.D.
