Rapid Audiogram Interpretation: A Clinician's Manual provides a methodical, step-by-step approach for interpreting audiograms. Training and experienced clinicians, as well as non-audiologists in related fields, will benefit from this unique workbook and easy-to-remember interpretation process. The manual includes audiogram examples on a varying level of complexity (basic, intermediate, and advanced), accompanied by official interpretations, matching the specific interpretation method recommended by the authors. This specific interpretation process allows the reader to learn the method and apply it to every future audiogram interpretation, making it an invaluable resource. Otolaryngology trainees (graduate medical students, residents, fellows) are expected to have a working knowledge of audiogram interpretation, however, few, if any, have direct lectures or mentored clinical experiences designed to provide this knowledge within their first few years of training. This resource fills that gap and provides a means for beginners to master interpretation of the audiogram. It also serves as a general review for more experienced clinicians. Key FeaturesIncludes 65 audiogram examples!Uses an 8-step method that can be easily learned and universally applied to future audiogram interpretationsA searchable index by diagnosis for each audiogram aids the learner in seeing disease-specific examplesIncludes a Glossary for quick reference of key termsWritten by otolaryngologists and an audiologist for comprehensive expertise and coverage Rapid Audiogram Interpretation will also be helpful for students and professionals in related fields, such as audiology, speech-language pathology, and deaf/hard of hearing education.

The Audiogram Workbook- the first guide to provide comprehensive practice in the administration of audiograms - lets the student work through more than 100 clinical cases covering a full range of audiologic disorders. Each exercise is structured to allow the student to write in his or her own clinical evaluation based on presenting symptoms and audiometric test results - and then compare the results to the examiner's real case summary. Special features of this unique text: 135 cases for practical assessment and professional development -- the largest collection ever compiled for a study guide! A comprehensive listing of unusual patient conditions and how to adapt to them A medical chart format throughout the book - providing the practice needed in working with standard notations The Audiogram Workbookis a valuable source of concentrated practice and review of audiometric test interpretation, essential for those who wish to expand their skills.

The Audiogram Workbook provides students with essential practice in reading and interpreting audiograms. Each case begins with a case history and audiogram, followed by the correct interpretation on the next page. Key Features: More than 100 cases covering a wide range of audiologic conditions Written by promising young audiologists at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, one of the top audiology programs in the U.S. Each case allows the reader to view and correctly interpret audiograms and to understand case history writing Practice audiograms provide students with a "clean slate" to write and create a case history based on audiogram and then interpret results The Audiological Interpretation Cheat Sheet assists readers in interpreting audiograms during clinical rotations This workbook is an excellent resource for audiology students who need to learn the skill of audiogram interpretation.

Basic Audiometry Learning Manual, Third Edition is designed to provide students and beginning clinicians with instruction in the art and science of clinical audiometry techniques. Well-defined learning outcomes, review of concepts, observation exercises, guided practice, and review materials serve as catalysts for active learning of concepts and provide opportunity for utilization of fundamental audiometry methods. The comprehensive content of the Learning Manual encompasses the breadth of audiologic evaluation, including history taking and patient communication, ear canal assessment and management, immittance, pure-tone testing, masking, speech audiometry, otoacoustic emissions, patient counseling, and report writing. Chapters can be taught in a serial fashion, following the sequence of a typical audiologic evaluation. Alternatively, the order of activities can be tailored to suit a particular instructional curriculum, or as individual topics coalesced with immediate goals. New to the Third Edition: * A new chapter focused on audiometry as a precursor to hearing treatment * Updated figures to reflect what learners will experience in modern clinical practice * Updated terminology to reflect current clinical practice * Many new online supplemental materials for instructors to engage their learners Key Features: * Learning Outcomes provide students with clear goals for knowledge and skill-building and provide a foundation for students to evaluate their progress toward clinical competence outcomes * Review of Concepts provides a concise examination of the theoretical knowledge necessary for performance of clinical activities * Observation challenges students to witness the behavior of clinical instructors or practicing professionals in the act of clinical practice * Guided Practice leads the student through exercises designed to provide firsthand experience with performing clinical activities * Reflection and Review provides students with opportunities to incorporate newfound understanding gained through Observation and Guided Practice into their theoretical and conceptual knowledge base through answering reflective and review questions * Includes 18 videos of common procedures
