instruction demonstration and coaching
perceptual training
counseling
Habilitation vs. rehabilitation:
habilitation more appropriate term when working with ?
rehabilitation is more appropriate for ?
children because the skills are being taught for the first time
adults as it focuses on restoring skill that has been lost
Aural Habilitation:
Atypical hearing can have a major impact on a child’s ? so these services are ?
the services provided will depend on each child's ? and are influenced by a variety of factors - - -age when -degree of -type of -age of
development/critical
individual needs
- age of child
- age of onset
- age when child was identified as deaf/hard of hearing
- degree of atypical hearing
- type of atypical hearing
- age when child was first introduced to HAS or amplification
Aural Rehabilitation Adults :
- auditory rehabilitation services will focus on
- adjusting to
- making the best of
- exploring
- managing
- taking charge of
- minimizing
services can be ?
most children who are DHH will require ? But what about adults ?
current hearing status use of technology assistive devices conversations one's communication impact of hearing loss on individual
individual, combo or both
aural rehabilitation services/ not all need therapy only if it is impacting life
3 types of hearing loss: 90% of hearing loss is ? -this happens because there are ? -not a ? -options:
Conductive: there is a ? for example? -most of the time it is ? -not as ? but can be ? when it is permanent ? How do we test inner ear ? -BAHA?
sensorineural in nature
- damaged or missing hair cells in cochlea and because of that they cannot stimulate auditory nerve
- fix
- options : hearing aid or cochlear implant
conductive component/outer or middle ear making it so inner ear can’t do it’s job
-reparable
-common/ permanent
-atresia and microsia (malformation of outer ear)
bone conduction - bypasses part of ear that is malformed and directly stimulates cochlea
Tympanometry classifications:
tympanometry is a test of an individual’s?
-it looks at the ? indicating:
type A = Type B= Type C= Type As= Type Ad=
middle ear function / flexibility of the ear drum to changing air pressures indicating how effectively sound is transmitted into middle ear
normal flat negative shallow/stiff deep/disarticulated
-
-
Speech reception threshold
speech awareness threshold
word recognition scores
SRT assesses the ?
SAT assesses the ?
WRS uses ? to assess one’s ability to ?
minimum hearing level at which an individual can REPEAT two-syllable words 50% of the time the speech is presented
softest intensity level at which an individual is aware and/or can detect the presence of speech, 50% of the time the speech is presented
monosyllabic words/ accurately identify different words presented to each ear at the comfortable listening level
Things to consider - pure tone average refers to the average of? typically ?
this value gives a snapshot of an individual’s ? as speech sounds are more densely represented in the mid frequencies the outlying frequencies are ?
hearing threshold levels at a set of specified frequencies
-500, 1000,2000
hearing level in each ear
not included in PTA calculation to allow for more consistent comparisons
Speech recognition testing: -whole ? -the word must be ? -the traditional categorizations include ? -excellent or within normal limits= good or slight difficulty = fair to moderate = poor or great difficulty = very poor ?
word basis
absolutely correct in order to be judged as being correct
-good, fair, poor, and very poor
90-100% 78-88% 66-76% 54-64% <52%
