This course explores how cortical auditory evoked potential measurements can be used to inform the management of patients with ANSD.
This course explores how cortical auditory evoked potential measurements can be used to inform the management of patients with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD). Whilst traditionally behavioral testing has been required to inform decisions regarding amplification and cochlear implantation, cortical measurements are providing data at earlier ages which is facilitating earlier intervention. The evidence base is reviewed and best practices discussed to help ensure safe and appropriate management decisions are made.
Identify the challenges facing clinicians when deciding upon best management for patients with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder.
Explain the evidence base surrounding the clinical utility of cortical auditory evoked potential measurements for patients with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder.
Describe how to implement management plans based on cortical auditory evoked potential measurements for patients with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder and the associated limitations.
