Session: 1620
2 Hrs
Type: Professional Education

Presented by: Teresa Zwolan, U of Michigan; Camille Dunn,
U of Iowa; Daniel Zeitler, Virginia Mason Med Ctr
This session is developed by, and presenters invited by,
Intervention/Rehabilitation of Hearing and Balance Disorders
in Children and Intervention/Rehabilitation of Hearing and
Balance Disorders in Adults. Advances in electrode arrays
and surgical procedures have led to increased likelihood
of hearing preservation with cochlear implants. This has led
to expansion of candidacy for traditional patients, greater
consideration of patients for hybrid/electroacoustic devices,
and greater consideration of off label use of devices, such
as patients with single sided deafness. We will describe state
of the art test procedures and factors that are considered
when determining cochlear implant candidacy for children
and adults.

PREMIER SESSIONS AND NAMED LECTURES

This session is developed by, and presenters invited
by, Leadership and Professional Issues. Ensuring quality
evidence‑based services requires authentic, bidirectional
collaborations between researchers and clinicians that
address issues of efficacy, implementation, and dissemination.
This session addresses the value and appeal of researchers
and clinicians working together to improve science and
practice. To illustrate, a successful researcher‑SLP pair will
discuss their collaborative process, to include how their
shared interests allow improvement of an intervention for
implementation in different settings. Recommendations for
motivating future researcher‑clinician collaborations will
be provided.

NAMED Lectures

This session is developed by, and presenters
invited by, SIG 19: Speech Science. Engineering
plays a critical role in supporting speech science.
This includes sensing and imaging to illuminate
the intricate details of speech production, signal
processing and computing to visualize, model
and interpret multimodal data and technologies
to support novel clinical applications. The talk
will highlight some of these advances and
opportunities.
