Medical Work-Up of Pediatric Sensorineural Hearing Loss - Case Presentations (AMW)
2021 AAO-HNSF Annual Meeting & OTO Experience
The management of pediatric sensorineural hearing loss requires a coordinated team approach between a diverse group of professionals. These include audiologists, speech and language pathologists, early intervention specialists, physicians, educators, and many others. While the approaches and the details of the clinical algorithm vary dramatically across the country, the managing physician often plays a central role. The session aims at detailing the physician's perspective of the team approach by discussing various common clinical scenarios applying evidence-based guidelines. This seems especially pertinent given the diverse clinical population served by hearing loss professionals. The panelists also plan to detail imaging, surgical aspects in the management of pediatric hearing loss, established and new trends in cochlear implantation, and alternative technology.
