**Presentation Date:** 25 September 2025

**Duration:** 0:59:56

**Return to:** [AuDacity Archive](https://www.audiologist.org/audacity-archive)

This session will review the committee task, process, outcome, rational, and next steps for the recent report "Meaningful Outcome Measures in Adult Hearing Health Care" from The National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine that culminated in a recommended core outcome set of measures for clinical and research studies related to non-surgical or implant hearing interventions.

**Attendees will be able to:**

- Identify the task of the National Academies Committee
- Describe the process for identifying core outcome domains and specific recommended questionnaires
- Identify the current recommended core set of outcome measures for non-surgical hearing interventions

By equipping essential staff with these core competencies, hearing care professionals can spend more time focused on clinical care. The long-term impact? A more efficient practice, improved patient outcomes, and measurable time savings across your team. A trained Technology Specialist streamlines workflow and reduces the time spent on technical support tasks—where it counts the most.
