Evolution of BICROS Amplification for Asymmetrical Sensorineural Hearing Loss (ASNHL) Based on Recent Research and Clinical Experiences

This presentation will introduce participants to the causes of asymmetrical sensorineural hearing loss, its impact on communication, historical overview of the evolution of BICROS hearing aids and recent developments in BICROS hearing aids as well of the results of three recent studies at the Hearing Aid Research Lab at Washington University on recently introduced BICROS hearing aids.

Learning Objectives:
1. Upon completion the participant will be more knowledgeable about the causes of ASNHL and its impact on communication.
2. Upon completion the participants will be more knowledgeable about the evolution of BICROS hearing aids (“you don’t know where you’re going until you know where you’ve been”).
3. Upon completion the participants will be more knowledgeable about the results of three recent studies at the Hearing Aid Research Lab at Washington University on recently introduced BICROS hearing aids.
