Summary: This session addresses the management of pediatric vestibular and balance disorders. Particular focus is paid to the characteristics of pediatric patients who would likely benefit from vestibular and balance therapy, the focus of such therapy, and the types of exercises done to target vestibular-related impairments in children.

Summary: The Video Head Impulse Test (vHIT) is a diagnostic tool used to assess the function of the balance system, specifically the semicircular canals (SCC) and vestibular-ocular reflex (VOR). This on demand webinar will review the anatomy and physiology of these systems, how the vHIT provides ear-specific data for each SCC, and how the vHIT can help diagnose vestibular hypofunction. The presentation will focus on testing pediatric patients, including test modifications and interpretation considerations.

Summary: Individuals who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) have specific communication needs relevant to accessing mental health care. This on demand webinar will delve into this vital area of care, providing actionable strategies and next steps to SLPs who work with AAC users, regardless of your familiarity with the arena of mental health access.
Presenter(s): Barbara Weber,MS, CCC-SLP, BCBA
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This on demand webinar will address interprofessional collaboration between SLPs and Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) when assessing and implementing augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). Focusing on a case study where collaboration improved outcomes for a young child who uses AAC, the speaker will address terminology and language frameworks used by each field, highlight the perspective of each discipline, and share practical strategies for facilitating collaboration. Participants will walk away with a handout with conversation starters and question prompts SLPs can use to facilitate discussions about AAC with BCBAs.

Summary: Historically, much of the curriculum and practice for audiologists has centered around hearing evaluation and management, with less focus on the vestibular system and its complexities. This on demand webinar will help audiologists gain a deeper understanding of vestibular and balance disorders in children, including tools for diagnosis and strategies for management.
Presenter(s): Elizabeth Adams Costa, PhD, CCC-A, FAAA; Logan Skinner Cole; Amy Nichols, AuD, PhD, CCC-A
Credit(s): PDHs: 0.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.05
Summary: This presentation describes the case of a 48-year-old female presenting with vertigo and disequilibrium consistent with mal de debarquement (MdDS) following a weeklong vacation cruise. MRI images, audiometric, and vestibular results are presented, as well as an in-depth review of MdDS and Chiari malformation and their impact on vestibular function and quality of life.
Presenter(s): Blair Richlin, MS, CCC-SLP, LSLS AVEd, TSSLD
Credit(s): PDHs: 0.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.05
Summary: This session is a case study that focuses on patients and families with diagnosed hearing loss and additional disabilities who participated in aural habilitation/rehabilitation and speech/language intervention focusing on development of listening and spoken language skills with support of alternative and augmentative communication (AAC).
New On Demand Webinar
Presenter(s): Mary Katherine Dally, MS, CCC-SLP, ATP
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: This webinar will explore alternative access methods in early childhood along with augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), with a focus on switch access. The speaker will discuss a total access approach assigning meaning to all communication attempts, increasing social interactions and acceptance, and presuming competence for the youngest learners. The webinar will share examples of play-based learning activities that SLPs can customize to meet a child's unique interests and passions while focusing on alternative access methods.
Presenter(s): Joseph Sakumura, AuD; Richard E Gans, PhD, CCC-A
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This recorded session from the ASHA Audiology 2022 Online Conference provides a comprehensive overview of today's modern and highly sensitive neurodiagnostic vestibular tests, including rotary chair, cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP), and video Head Impulse Testing (vHIT), as well as postural stability assessments. The presenters discuss how integrating these tests creates a diagnosis-based strategy that provides the team of diagnostic and rehabilitation professionals with direction and guidance as to the best vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) strategies for the individual patient. The session includes video examples of the range of VRT strategies, including adaptation and habituation.
