Il post applicazione protesica, seppur fase fondamentale del processo riabilitativo, è ancora un territorio inesplorato o quantomeno poco discusso.
Nel corso del webinar i clinici audioprotesisti Dr. A. Cirignola e Dr. G. Pagnotta parleranno del post applicazione, descrivendo come il Matrix Test e le prove di Speech Tracking siano strumenti fondamentali che consentono all’audioprotesista di analizzare e lavorare sugli aspetti riabilitativi di una protesizzazione.
Ma non solo! Saranno esposti i risultati di una ricerca condotta dai clinici presso i propri centri acustici, la quale vede il miglioramento delle capacità uditive dei pazienti (valore SRT) senza protesi (UNAIDED) nel corso della riabilitazione (6 e 12 mesi). Segno che la riabilitazione acustica funziona!
La domanda sorge spontanea: riabilitando la capacità uditiva stiamo riabilitando anche quella cognitiva?
Entriamo così in una fase della riabilitazione acustica la quale vede un incontro tra neurologia e audiologia: la neuroaudiologia.
Andrea Cirignola is Hearing Care Professional and administrator of Centro Acustico Lecco, member of the ANAP scientific committee and specialised in the acoustic rehabilitation of presbyacusis.
He is the first Italian professional to be certified by the University of Oldenburg for the Matrix Test.
Giorgio Pagnotta graduated in Hearing Aid Techniques in 2005 from the University of Bari, where he subsequently obtained a master's degree in Child Acoustic Prosthesization and Rehabilitation and a master's degree in Work and Organisational Psychology.
He works at Centro Progetto Udito Sas in Trani and he is also Oldenburg certified for the Matrix test.
La prueba del Video Impulse Test (VHIT) permite investigar los seis canales semicirculares en alta frecuencia. Mediante movimientos rápidos de la cabeza del paciente, el VHIT permite identificar los movimientos sacádicos encubiertos durante y después del movimiento, cuantificando así la ganancia del VOR (es decir, la relación entre la velocidad de la pupila y la de la cabeza).
Diseñado y desarrollado por el doctor Erik Ulmer, Synapsys VHIT es un producto único en el campo del Balance gracias a un revolucionario sistema de cámara remota.
El software con un control remoto de la cámara detecta la dirección de los movimientos de la cabeza del paciente: el sistema reconoce automáticamente el plano investigado. Se requieren 5 maniobras por canal para obtener un resultado confiable. Esto le permite probar los 6 canales semicirculares en menos de 5 minutos. El software también ofrece la oportunidad de analizar los gráficos de posición (posición de la mirada con respecto a la posición de la cabeza) y reevaluar posibles maniobras no aceptadas gracias a la reproducción a cámara lenta del vídeo de la maniobra.
Durante el seminario, Mario Pizzeghello, especialista de producto de Inventis, brinda instrucciones sencillas para realizar la prueba de video impulse test con el sistema Inventis SYNAPSYS VHIT.

Le head impulse test est un test décrit par Halmagyi G.M & Curthoys.I.S il y a plus de 25 ans explorant le réflexe vestibulo-oculaire (RVO).
S’il est positif, il traduit une lésion du canal interrogé. Trop rapide, nécessitant un oeil averti, feu Erik Ulmer, avait mis au point un système d’enregistrement permettant une analyse fine, rapide et quantifié du RVO et de ses déficits sur les différents canaux.
De nos jours, cet examen fait partie du vestibulogramme à haute fréquence et permet aussi bien de poser un diagnostic que d’assurer le suivi de la rééducation vestibulaire du patient.

La vestibolopatia riveste un ruolo prominente nell’attuale scenario sanitario sia per il gran numero di pazienti colpiti ogni anno, sia per le implicazioni della vestibolopatia stessa, determinata da patologie spesso banali ma a volte particolarmente gravi. Se nella maggior parte dei casi, e soprattutto in acuto, la valutazione non strumentale è sufficiente a gestire correttamente il paziente, in alcuni casi complessi il ricorso alla vestibologia “strumentale” è indispensabile. Ci si riferisce in particolare alla vestibolopatia cronica ma anche alla vestibologia medico-legale, per la quale la quantizzazione del danno è indispensabile e non può prescindere da una valutazione strumentale.
La Masterclass - L’apparato vestibolare: fisiopatologia, semeiotica e clinica si pone l’obiettivo di fornire le basi teoriche e pratiche per la corretta gestione del paziente vestibolopatico acuto e cronico.
Consisterà di 4 lezioni in presenza che si svolgeranno presso Grand Hotel Vanvitelli (Viale Carlo III - 81100 Caserta) e saranno gestite dal Dr. Vincenzo Marcelli, specialista ambulatoriale, responsabile dell’ ambulatorio di Audiologia e Vestibologia dell’UOC ORL dell’ospedale del Mare, ASL-NA 1, Napoli e Professore a contratto presso la Facoltà di Medicina e Chirurgia, Università degli studi di Napoli “Federico II”.
Ecco i dettagli della quarta lezione:
18 Ottobre 2023, 09:00-13:00
La semeiotica strumentale
IMPORTANTE
Gli specialisti partecipanti sono invitati a presentare, nel corso di ogni lezione, casi clinici visionati durante la propria pratica quotidiana. Sarà infatti dato ampio spazio al dibattito tra esperti (e non) del settore.
La partecipazione all'intero corso è gratuita, previa registrazione. I posti disponibili sono 50.

L'objectif est de montrer l'intérêt de la prise en charge pluridisciplinaire en particulier par les audioprothésistes, orthophonistes, et médecins (Généralistes, ORL, Gériatres..) pour optimiser la prise en charge diagnostique et thérapeutique des troubles de l’audition. Seront présentés en particulier des cas de presbyacousie, neuropathie auditive, surdité asymétrique...
