Hearing Loss Prevention

To ensure our hearing loss prevention efforts are successful, a preventive hearing health schedule is recommended. At minimum, this would include an initial baseline hearing test and annual comprehensive audiological evaluations to monitor your hearing. Otoacoustic emissions testing also provides your clinician with a highly specific and very sensitive measure to monitor subtle changes to your hearing structures.

In addition to regular assessment, your hearing loss prevention plan may include custom in-ear technologies that help you hear what you need to hear but at a level that is safer, yet still comfortable. Some technologies suggested may include one or more of the following hearing loss prevention devices:

• Custom musician’s hearing protection - Devices for stage performers that reduce sound level while maintaining acoustic quality.
• Custom in-ear monitors - Devices that allow superior on stage personal monitoring and may help protect against permanent hearing loss when used as directed.
• Custom sound-isolating earphones
• Custom IFB (interruptible feedback) molds – Small, comfortable, custom earpieces for on-air talent.
