Ever wonder how cognition, audition, and amplification are all interconnected? Discover the fascinating connection in this week's Hearing Matters episode, where we also explore the challenges of diagnosing auditory processing disorders with no hearing loss on an audiogram. Learn about the groundbreaking research of Dr. Anu Sharma and Dr. Hannah Glick, and how cross-modal recruitment plays crucial role in cognition, audition, and amplification.
Neuroplasticity and its relation to auditory processing disorders in children and age-related hearing loss in older adults are discussed in this enlightening conversation. Find out about the common cause hypothesis, which links age-related hearing loss and cognitive decline, and the importance of effective management of auditory processing disorders. We also delve into hearing technology such as FM systems, hearing aids, and pocket talkers that can improve signal-to-noise ratio and help the brain focus on what to pay attention to.
Before you consider any solutions for auditory processing disorders, it's crucial to get a proper diagnosis from an audiologist or licensed hearing healthcare professional. We discuss the significance of low gain hearing technology, and highlight the National Council on Aging 1999 study, which emphasized the benefits of correcting hearing loss. Providing auditory access to the acoustic world can help individuals thrive - don't miss out on this insightful episode as we unravel the mysteries of cognition, audition, and amplification.
