In this one-hour HOPE presentation, conductive hearing loss in young children and the various causes for this type of loss are reviewed. In addition, coverage is provided on various treatments for pediatric conductive hearing loss. Special emphasis is placed on information and discussion of amplification for these losses with Bone Conduction hearing systems.
This is a Recorded Course which requires either a Windows-based computer or a Mac with speakers/headphones to view. More information is available in the FAQs/Help section.
Length: 60 minutes

Course Objectives:
- Upon completing this course, learners will be able to list several of the causes and potential treatment options for conductive hearing loss in young children.
- Upon completing this course, learners will be able to describe amplification approaches for children with conductive hearing loss.
- Upon completing this course, learners will be able to describe the bone conduction pathway and describe the advantages of bone conduction versus air conduction in certain hearing loss profiles.
