Virtual human speaker
The aim of the discussed study was to develop and evaluate a 3D virtual speaker that could use pre-recorded audio-material and possibly be used for audio-visual speech testing in the future. The authors developed the terminal-analogue method that allows to...Interacoustics introduces a new diagnostic test at EUHA
Interacoustics is happy to introduce the Audible Contrast Threshold (ACT™) test; a new, diagnostic test to support the number one challenge with hearing loss: difficulty hearing speech in background noise.
Review: Cochlear Implantation in SSD?
Contra lateral routing of signals (CROS) using hearing aids and bone conduction devices has been the conventionally accepted modality for the treatment of single sided hearing impairment. The CROS hearing aid has been found to improve speech understanding in noise,...The UK National Eye Health and Hearing Study
A pilot study is currently underway in preparation for a UK National Eye Health and Hearing Study (UKNEHS). This will help to ensure an up-to-date and comprehensive picture of sight and hearing loss among over 50s in the UK.
Possibility of noise induced hearing loss during middle ear suction for secretory otitis media
Emission of high intensity sound is dangerous to the cochlea and can result in noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). Removal of middle ear fluid is common in everyday practice and the possibility of inducing NIHL is seldom considered and not...
Hearing loss in the contralateral ear after mastoid drilling
It is difficult to conceive that most of the noise generated by drilling the mastoid would not be conveyed to the contralateral cochlea, by direct transmission through the skull bone, where the attenuation factor is only 5-10 dB. Only a...2023 Digital EUHA Spring Conference
Save the date! The 3rd Digital EUHA Spring Conference will kick off on 31 March 2023.
Head and neck cancer recurrence: a prospective analysis
The ‘cancer journey’ is synonymous for many individuals worldwide with frequent post-treatment hospital visits where the spectre of possible recurrence hangs over the consultation. This is a prospective analysis of 401 follow-up visits in Melbourne, Australia looking at follow-up in...Ossicular reconstruction
Ossicular reconstruction often yields disappointing results, even for the most experienced and skilled of otologists. John Dornhoffer and David Walker explain that the most important determinant of outcome is the patient’s middle ear environment, and offer some valuable words of...Listening differences in autistic individuals
In this article Erin Schafer, Lauren Mathews and Andrea Dunn outline the common auditory issues that autistic individuals face in comparison with their neurotypical peers and highlight the need to move beyond the traditional audiologic test battery when working with...
