Congratulations on becoming a newborn hearing screener!

Your role as a newborn hearing screener is vital to the hearing and speech development of your newborns. You are responsible for performing newborn hearing screening on all infants prior to discharge and are the front line of communication with new parents. Newborn hearing screening, although easy to learn, requires specific steps and training to ensure quality screening.

11oct4:00 pm5:00 pmIdentifying Vestibular Loss in Head and Brain TraumaJoin this eseminar with Amy Lennox-Bowley

Event Details

Course introduction:
Coming to terms with any head trauma can be a daunting and emotional experience. But when a patient has ongoing balance issues as a result, how do you —the clinician — identify and support these challenges?

This seminar will look at common vestibular injuries with associated mTBI and the mechanisms behind them, the complex nature and needs of these patients, and the possible test protocols and markers for certain assessment needs. Finally, there will be a focus on these patients’ specific counseling and vestibular rehabilitation needs and how clinicians can implement a patient-focused rehabilitation program.

Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this eseminar the participants will be able to:

Identify common vestibular disorders associated with head trauma and the mechanisms behind them.
Discuss the complex nature of a patient presenting with both a mTBI and vestibular disorders.
Review and evaluate vestibular assessment strangles and their usefulness.
Implement a dedicated and personal vestibular rehabilitation plan for this patient cohort.

My favorite point the presenter made was that multiple layers of screening are to be avoided. Intuitively, re-screenings seem worthwhile because we expect the false positive rate to decrease, but as she points out the false negative rate will also increase. It's better to proceed with diagnostic testing once the baby fails a screening to keep the false negative rate as close to zero as possible. She didn't specifically address re-screens while the baby is still at the hospital, but I'm assuming she would endorse those, and they seem to be standard practice.

I used to ask my patients, have you fallen in the last year. Now, I will ask "Have you fallen in the last 6 months" as part of my case history.
