Free Download Hearing Aids for Speech-Language Pathologists: A Guide to Modern Rehabilitative Audiology
English | 2020 | ISBN: 1635502144 | 514 Pages | EPUB (True) | 45 MB
Hearing aid technology changes at a rapid pace. For speech-language pathologists who work with individuals using hearing instruments, keeping up with the new technology can be challenging, and sometimes even intimidating. Hearing Aids for Speech-Language Pathologists is designed to remove the mystery and the confusing high-tech terms of the many hearing aid algorithms and features, by simply laying out the need-to-know aspects in an organized, easy to read and understand manner. The core of this text focuses on how modern hearing aids work, and the tests associated with the fitting of these instruments. Attention is given to both the school age and adult hearing aid user. Recent developments such as situation detection, rechargeability and wireless connectivity are reviewed in detail, as well as the popular use of smartphone apps to allow the user to control the processing. Amplification is not just hearing aids, and therefore chapters also have been dedicated to implantable amplification strategies, FM and Bluetooth solutions. Hearing aid fitting cannot be studied in isolation, but rather, how it fits into the complete treatment of the patient with hearing loss, including the audiologic rehabilitative process. For this reason, the beginning chapters of the book are devoted to a review of the basics of the modern audiologic evaluation and the associated auditory pathologies. Readers will also find portions of the book that address hearing screening in the schools, rehabilitative techniques and auditory training. Practicing speech-language pathologist and graduate students will find that this text provides the latest in concise and practical information in the areas of hearing aids and rehabilitative audiology. Hearing Aids for Speech-Language Pathologists is authored by two of the industry’s leading authorities on adult amplification, who have carefully crafted a text that provides speech-language pathologists with the essential information to work comfortably with hearing instruments and their accessories for individuals of all ages.

Have you heard God? Did you know that you were created to hear Him? Hearing Him should be as normal as hearing a person speak to you. There are many voices that compete for our time and attention. Between the voices of politicians, media pundits, doctors, teachers, friends, children and spouses, there are times when we ‘can’t even hear ourselves think!’ And yet, in the midst of the voices that we hear and the sensory overload of our lives, it is possible to hear God. Hearing God is the key to abundant, victorious living. Developing your capacity to hear God and recognize His voice is what this book is about. Learn the secret of faith, healing, provision and protection as you learn to recognize His voice.

Deafness is one of the most widespread, costly and poorly understood disabilities in the world. Hearing impairment is a condition that involves medical, psychological and social aspects. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) about 250 million people have disabling hearing loss and two-thirds of them live in the developing world. Millions of people progressively lose their most important means of communication and became socially isolated, especially in the later years of their life. This handbook provides recent research on several different hearing disorders.

Free Download Ph.D. Silman, Shlomo, "Instrumentation in Audiology and Hearing Science: Theory and Practice"
English | ISBN: 1597563811 | 2011 | 262 pages | EPUB | 21 MB
Understanding the array and complexity of instrumentation available to audiologists and hearing scientists is important to students, beginning clinicians indeed even seasoned professionals. This new textbook is a comprehensive and accessible look at instrumentation used in these fields. The expert authors introduce the laws of physics as they relate to audiology and hearing science and explain concepts in electronics directly related to instrumentation used in audiology and hearing science (filtering, immittance, digital signal processing including FFT, power reflectance, microphones, receivers, amplifiers, and so forth). They also provide an invaluable introduction to digital technology and further cover details on the calibration of equipment (ANSI standards, audiometer, otoacoustic emissions, and other evoked potentials). The book, reviewed by internationally renowned experts and with a foreward by Dr. James Jerger, is abundantly illustrated with analog and digital models and also includes instrumentation demonstrations on an accompanying DVD.

Hearing remains the only human sense that can be restored if damaged. Thus, cochlear implants and other implantable hearing mechanisms have become more prevalent solutions to modern-day hearing trauma, making it imperative for clinicians to gain expertise on the subject. This text will provide hearing professionals – who are oftentimes ignorant of the fundamental indications for and benefits of hearing devices – with the knowledge necessary to wholly understand these implantable mechanisms so that they can incorporate them into their practices.
