Book Synopsis Adult Aural Rehabilitation by : Denzil N. Brooks
Download or read book Adult Aural Rehabilitation written by Denzil N. Brooks and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-09 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Man's need for communication with his fellow man is possibly his greatest need and the fulfilment of his other needs and desires is largely dependent upon, or at the last greatly facilitated by, his ability to satisfy this basic one.' Louise Tracy Defective hearing disrupts human communication. It gives rise to anxiety, frustration, stress, isolation, loss of self-esteem, even loss of livelihood for the individual with a reduced capacity to receive and interpret sound. Because we live in families and communities, the effects of hearing loss are not restricted to the impaired individual. Those who associate with that person, especially those who are very close, are affected and prone to many of the same emotions and stresses. From the earliest times man has sought for remedies for hearing loss. Incantations, infusions, cuppings and bleedings, all have been advo cated and, with the rare, serendipitous exception, have been equally ineffective. The only real assistance for countless generations was to cup the hand behind the ear and ask the speaker to raise their voice.
Book Synopsis Hearing Rehabilitation for Deafened Adults by : Anthony Hogan
Download or read book Hearing Rehabilitation for Deafened Adults written by Anthony Hogan and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 2001 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hearing and speech professionals globally recognise the importance of managing the needs of the whole person as part of any hearing rehabilitation program. While hearing aids, cochlear implants and other technologies form a critical part of a person's rehabilitation program, clinicians also need to be able to manage the person's adjustment to their disability; to understand the factors that motivate a client to change; to be able to aid the individual in managing their expectations of audiological benefit and to have ready access to strategies to facilitate this helping process. This book has been written to assist clinicians in providing their clients with a holistic rehabilitation experience. The text provides the reader with a psycho-social framework for understanding practice, while offering a range of practical strategies, tools and counselling ideas for use in the clinic, including the Montreal rehabilitation program, finally available in English. Representing a watershed in hearing rehabilitation, the book provides clinicans and students with materials that will aid clients in managing hearing loss where the technology leaves off.

Book Synopsis The Value of Using the Operational Model of Behaviour Change on Adult Aural Rehabilitation Outcomes by : Aarti Makan
Download or read book The Value of Using the Operational Model of Behaviour Change on Adult Aural Rehabilitation Outcomes written by Aarti Makan and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prevalence of hearing loss in adults is well documented. Hearing loss leads to poor communication, which is essential for daily living. Cogitating that we have an ageing population who are living longer with more co-morbidities, the consequences of a hearing loss can have a devastating impact on psychosocial aspects of an individual’s life. This in turn can negatively affect the quality of life of individuals with hearing loss. Although hearing aids are said to improve quality of life, studies have proven that many patients who are issued with hearing aids do not comply with aural rehabilitation services (either do not use the hearing aids at all or do not use them consistently). Research documents how this is costly (both financially and psychosocially) to patients, their caregivers as well as audiologists providing the service. Motivation and self-reported hearing disability and handicap have been highlighted in the literature as reasons why patients do not comply with aural rehabilitation. With current NHS reforms imposing cost-effective care with more patient choice and patient collaboration, aural rehabilitation services should evolve to include aspects of patient motivation and self-reported hearing disability and handicap by renouncing old medical models of rehabilitation and utilising models such as the Operational Model of behaviour change (OM). This model is said to be cost effective and patient-centred. The main aim of this study was to determine the value of using the OM of behaviour change on adult aural rehabilitation outcomes. The sub-aims outlined were designed to compare aural rehabilitation outcomes between two groups of subjects: one group that did not receive the OM of behaviour change and one that received the OM of behaviour change. This study was a quantitative, experimental study that utilised a pre-test post-test design. A total of 141 adult subjects with sensorineural hearing loss, who have never worn hearing aids, were recruited to this study and 68 of these were deemed suitable to participate as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Only 43 subjects completed the study and attended their final follow up appointment. Data from 24 subjects in the control group and 19 subjects in the experimental group were analysed and reported. The HHIE-S, HHIA-S, GHABP, IOI-HA and hearing aid data logging statistics were utilised as outcome measures for this study. Pre-test results displayed no significant difference between groups prior to implementation of the OM. Post-test results showed no significant difference for hearing aid use, reported benefit, hearing aid satisfaction and self-reported hearing difficulties. Conversely, the subjects in the experimental group scored significantly less residual disability for the GHABP than those in the control group. It could be inferred that subjects in the experimental group who received the OM, were more engaged and more supported during their rehabilitation process and as such had less difficulty with hearing aids. With regard to hearing aid benefit, results did have some positive effect, but this was not statistically significant. Secondary analysis of the results revealed corroborations with other studies with regard to the value of hearing aids and improvement in quality of life and reduction of self-reported hearing disability and handicap. On the basis of this study’s results, further research is required to determine the value of the OM in similar audiology settings. Adaptation of service delivery models such as the OM corresponds with the drive for improving the quality of services by giving patients more control of their healthcare.

This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The loss of hearing - be it gradual or acute, mild or severe, present since birth or acquired in older age - can have significant effects on one's communication abilities, quality of life, social participation, and health. Despite this, many people with hearing loss do not seek or receive hearing health care. The reasons are numerous, complex, and often interconnected. For some, hearing health care is not affordable. For others, the appropriate services are difficult to access, or individuals do not know how or where to access them. Others may not want to deal with the stigma that they and society may associate with needing hearing health care and obtaining that care. Still others do not recognize they need hearing health care, as hearing loss is an invisible health condition that often worsens gradually over time. In the United States, an estimated 30 million individuals (12.7 percent of Americans ages 12 years or older) have hearing loss. Globally, hearing loss has been identified as the fifth leading cause of years lived with disability. Successful hearing health care enables individuals with hearing loss to have the freedom to communicate in their environments in ways that are culturally appropriate and that preserve their dignity and function. Hearing Health Care for Adults focuses on improving the accessibility and affordability of hearing health care for adults of all ages. This study examines the hearing health care system, with a focus on non-surgical technologies and services, and offers recommendations for improving access to, the affordability of, and the quality of hearing health care for adults of all ages.
