Have you heard about the MED-EL IDEASforEARS contest? Each year, MED-EL offers children a chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime trip to MED-EL Headquarters in Innsbruck, Austria. IDEASforEARS is a special contest for children ages 6-12 who like to invent, be creative, and help people with hearing loss. We challenge these young inventors to create life-changing solutions addressing real-life problems. From now until January 17, your patients could submit an invention, a clever idea, or an improvement to something that already exists for a chance to win!
In a recent webinar, Cache Pitt, Clinical Professor of Audiology at Utah State University, and Barb Foster, Director of Education Training at MED-EL, discussed how incorporating Anatomy-Based Fitting and ESRT (Electrically Evoked Stapedial Reflex Threshold) into cochlear implant programming can significantly boost clinical efficiency.
