36
Q

as hearing aids gets smaller what happens to sound amplification ?

A

sound becomes less amplified

37
Q

which hearing aid provides the most amplification ?

A

body aid

38
Q

as hearing aids get smaller what happens to battery life ?

A

life gets way lower

39
Q

what are assistive listening devices ?

A
  • are personal technologies that can help you communicate in one-to-one conversation
  • imporve signal to noise ratio
  • amplify sound
40
Q

what are some examples of assitive learning devices ?

A
  • telephon listening devices (telecoils and amplifiers)
  • sound amplification (FM system)
  • keyboard devices for telephone (TDD, TTY)

41
Q

what are 4 exmaples of auditory implants ?

A
  • bone anchored hearing aids
  • cochlear implants
  • auditory brainstem implants
  • middle ear/mastoid implants
42
Q

when do we use bone anchored hearing aid implants ?

A

when unable to benefit from hearing aid due to outer/middle ear problem

43
Q

how do bone anchored hearing aids work ?

A

vibrated temporal bone via titanium implant behind ear and then transmits sound directily to inner ear

44
Q

who uses auditory implants ?

A

those who cannot benefit from an hearing aid

45
Q

who can benefit from a cochlear implant ?

A

for severe to profound SNHL in both ears

46
Q

what does SNHL stand for ?

A

Sensorineural hearing loss

47
Q

bone-anchored hearing aid vs cochlea :

A

A BAHA hearing aid sends soundwaves to your inner ear, where the bones in your skull vibrate to help you hear. In contrast, a cochlear implant bypasses your inner ear and directly stimulates your auditory nerve. People who have inner ear damage may benefit from cochlear implants.

48
Q

TRUE OR FALSE

those who have cochlear implants can recieve benefit from hearing aids

A

FALSE

those who have cochlear implants have little to no benefit from hearing aids

49
Q

TRUE OR FALSE

cochlear implants are one surgery and thats all

A

FALSE

cochlear implants have not only a surgey but multiple interventions that follow

50
Q

how do cochlear implants work ?

A

transmits signals sent through skull to electrodes situated along different regions of cochlea

51
Q

what differentiates cochlear implants vs BAHA ?

A

cochlear implants bypass damaged hair cells

52
Q

what do cochlear implants do ?

A

they do not restore normal hearing but provides representation of sound that can be used to sense sounds and understand speech

53
Q

TRUE OR FALSE

cochlea users must require training post-implant ?

A

TRUE

54
Q

TRUE OR FALSE

the cochlear implant is controversial in the deaf community ?

A

TRUE

55
Q

where do we implant cochlear devices ?

A

implant devices directly into the cochlea

56
Q

how do cochlear implants work ?

A
  • implant device directly into the cochlea
  • directly stimulates the auditory nerve
57
Q

TRUE OR FALSE

cochlaer implants sounds like normal voice/sounds ?

A

FALSE

will not sound like normal but will give people a representaion of sound and understadning speech

58
Q

what are the components of a cochlear implant ?

A
  • external microphone and sound processor
  • internal reciever
  • internal coil with electrodes
59
Q

how do the electrodes work in regards to cochlear implants ?

A

goes through the cochlea and attaches to the auditory nerve

60
Q

what are auditory brainstem implants ?

A

implants that bypass the cochlea and auditory nerve to transmit sound directly to the brainstem

61
Q

who uses auditory brainstem implants ?

A
  • those who have really hard time understanding speech and would need additional strategies and support to best understand
62
Q

what is middle ear/mastoid implants ?

A

electronic devices that convert sound energy into mechanical vibrations that directly stimulate middle ear structures.

63
Q

what are middle ear/mastoid implants coupled to ?

A

ossicles or oval window

64
Q

what does middle ear/mastoid implants bypass ?

A

outer ear

65
Q

what is the ONLY case that we can use middle ear/mastoid implant ?

A

if you have middle ear problem

66
Q

speech/language difficulties are more likely with what 2 factors ?

A
  1. earler hearing loss
  2. more severe hearing loss
67
Q

what are some common features of speech and language rehabilitation ?

A
  • phonology
  • voice/resonance
  • language
  • speech rate
  • speech reading
  • cued speech
  • oral/aural approach
68
Q

what does phonology focus on ?

A

the sounds

69
Q

the following points are defined by which factor ?

  • consonant and vowel omissions, substitutions, and disortions
  • influenced by speech sound visibility and acoustic characteristics
  • distort sounds cause its distorted to them
A

phonology

70
Q

describe some characteristics of voice and resonance :

A
  • hypernasality
  • cul-de-sac resonance
  • poor pitch control
71
Q

define “hypernasality” :

A

happens when too much air comes through the nose while talking, making the voice sound “nasally” or stuffed up, like when you have a cold.

72
Q

define “cul-de-sac” :

A

refers to speech that sounds muffled or trapped, like the voice is stuck inside the mouth or throat with little sound escaping. This happens when sound is blocked or doesn’t resonate properly.

73
Q

define “poor pitch control” :

A

having difficulty staying on the right notes when speaking or singing, causing the voice to sound too high or too low

74
Q

what is “speech reader” ?

A
  • “lip reader”
  • use speaker’s mouth, facial expressions, ge4stures to decode what is being said
  • use visual information as a strategy to augment and support communication
75
Q

what is “cued speech” ?

A
  • use of hand signals while speaking
  • not widely used re : limitations
76
Q

what is “oral/aural approach” ?

A
  • focuses on using speech articulation, hearing aids and speech reading
  • discourages exclusive reliance on visual cues
77
Q

what are manual approaches to speech and language rehabilitation ?

A
  • sign language
  • finger spelling
  • communication through visual mode viewed as more natural form
  • ASL/QSL most common in canada
78
Q

what is simultaneous or total communication approach ?

A

encourages all possible modes of communication includes spoken language, signed language, speech reading, amplification, writing, gestures, etc.

79
Q

what is deaf-blind communication ?

A

combination of visual and hearing impairment introduces challenges in using oral/aural and signed language

80
Q

what are some methods of communication for deaf-blind communication ?

A
  • manual communication
  • print in palm
  • braille
  • tadoma method
81
Q

describe the medical vs cultutral model :

A

medical = for hearing focuses on hearing loss as a problem that needs to be fixed or treated, often using things like hearings aids or surgery

cultural = sees deafness as part of a person’s identity and culture, especially in the Deaf community. it views Deafness not as a disability, but as a different way of experiencing the world
