Hidden Hearing Loss (HHL) is not a new concept, however, evidence of a novel primary pathology at the level of the inner hair cell synapse and its relationship to previously viewed non-traumatic noise has garnered significant attention over the past decade. In this session, we will detail the possible pathophysiological changes underlying HLL, consideration for diagnostics of HHL, and management strategies

Learning Objectives:

  • Define Hidden Hearing Loss (HHL)
  • Identify pathologies related to HHL
  • Describe the differential diagnosis of HHL
