Predicting Severity of Hearing Loss & Middle Ear Effusion Volume Using Wideband Tympanometry
Description
This course, presented by Dr Gabrielle Merchant, one of the world's foremost researchers into middle ear dysfunction, will explore the topic of wideband tympanometry, focusing on how wideband tympanometry can be utilized to predict the volume of middle ear effusion and severity of conductive hearing loss. The latest advances in research will be presented. Interactive tasks and case studies will be utilized to demonstrate the clinical benefit and applications of wideband tympanometry.
