AUDITORY NEUROPATHY--FROM THEORY TO PRACTICE

描述：拟议的2.5天听觉会议的目的 神经病变（AN）是提供足够的时间进行讨论的专家（双方 （1）病因学;（2） 病理生理学，（3）临床特征，（4）治疗 AN作为鼓励制定实验方案的基础的机会 和实用的方法来解决听觉神经障碍的问题， 人类 AN是一种罕见的疾病，可以对患者产生深远的影响。 幼儿言语、语言和口头交流的发展 并要求成年发病者制定补偿策略， 日常生活中的言语理解。 AN检测的重要性 将根据研究结果考虑新生儿， 采用耳声发射和听性脑干反应程序 新生儿听力筛查 因为AN是一种罕见的疾病， 会议将为临床医生提供机会（演讲者和 参与者）汇集他们的集体经验， 关于AN及其治疗的假设。 会议将包括三个 患者作为发言者以及与会者提交的海报 扩大信息基础。 鼓励参与 这次会议将于1996年3月29日至31日举行， 1998年美国听力学学会年会在洛杉矶附近举行 洛杉矶。

DESCRIPTION: The purpose of the proposed 2.5 day conference on auditory neuropathy (AN) is to provide adequate time for discussion by experts (both scientists and clinicians) to explore: (1) the etiology, (2) the pathophysiology, (3) the clinical features, and (4) the treatment opportunitie for AN as a basis for encouraging formulation of experimental and practical approaches to the problem of auditory nerve disorders in humans. AN is a rare condition and can have profound effect on the development of speech, language, and oral communication in young children and require those with adult onset to develop compensation strategies for understanding speech in everyday life. Th importance of AN detection in newborns will be considered in light of research results in which otoacoustic emissions and auditory brainstem response procedures were used for newborn hearing screening. Because AN is a rare condition, this conference will provide the opportunity for clinicians (both speakers and participants) to pool their collective experience to form reasonable hypotheses about AN and its treatment. The conference will include three patients as speakers as well as posters submitted by conference participants to broaden the information base. To encourage participation of audiologists, the conference will be held March 29-31, 1996, just before the 1998 Convention of the American Academy of Audiology at a site close to Los Angeles.
