Screening For Hearing Loss and Otitis Media In Children

Roush, Jackson

Intended for a graduate text in voice pathology, this book follows the logical learning sequence, systematically developing the knowledge bases required for a thorough understanding of the subject. The evolution of treatment of voice disorders is addressed with a historical perspective that allows the student to trace how voice problems were perceived, understood, and treated through decades of advancement up to the 21st century. The text covers anatomy and physiology, etiological correlates, and pathologies of the laryngeal mechanism. To aid in learning how to work with voice disordered patients, a well-defined, goal-oriented, diagnostic voice evaluation process is included. A detailed survey of voice therapies presents five philosophical orientations and the specific therapies under each, and is supplemented by case studies which bring alive the approaches presented. Special sections address care of the professional voice and the laryngectomized population.

The standard text for clinical methods courses is now updated and expanded to serve as the comprehensive single resource for specific therapy techniques for a wide variety of communication disorders, covering children and adults. Organized in two main sections, the manual covers the basic principles of speech-language intervention and information reporting systems as well as therapy strategies. Finally, a chapter on practical suggestions for effective parent and family counseling helps pull it all together in an especially useful manner. As more and more speech-language pathologists work privately and more independently, this manual serves as an aide to help supplement their knowledge when immediate consultation with colleagues is not available.
