Occupation, role and performance in adults: a comparative study
The authors investigate the occupations of adults with cochlear implants (CI) compared to those with hearing impairment without implants (HI) and individuals with normal hearing (NH). A total of 204 participants were included: 98 CI users, 52 HI individuals and...What’s new in auditory processing?
Auditory processing disorder (APD) has had a controversial history, stemming mainly from lack of scientific rigor and accepted clinical definition. That situation is now changing. Driven by the huge number of people with unaddressed listening difficulties, basic discoveries in neuroscience,...Clinical guidance: using the NAL-NL3 Fitting System in practice
NAL-NL3 modernises hearing aid prescription with modular, evidence-based modules, improving real-world comfort and communication for diverse listening needs. Hearing aid prescription has long relied on a single, audiogram-based formula to guide amplification. While this approach has delivered reliable outcomes for...International Conference on Otolaryngology and ENT Disorders
